[ Upstream commit f36199355c64a39fe82cfddc7623d827c7e050da ]
Maurizio found a race where the abort and cmd stop paths can race as
follows:
1. thread1 runs iscsit_release_commands_from_conn and sets
CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP.
2. thread2 runs iscsit_aborted_task and then does __iscsit_free_cmd. It
then returns from the aborted_task callout and we finish
target_handle_abort and do:
target_handle_abort -> transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric ->
lio_check_stop_free -> target_put_sess_cmd
The cmd is now freed.
3. thread1 now finishes iscsit_release_commands_from_conn and runs
iscsit_free_cmd while accessing a command we just released.
In __target_check_io_state we check for CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP and set the
CMD_T_ABORTED if the driver is not cleaning up the cmd because of a session
shutdown. However, iscsit_release_commands_from_conn only sets the
CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP and does not check to see if the abort path has claimed
completion ownership of the command.
This adds a check in iscsit_release_commands_from_conn so only the abort or
fabric stop path cleanup the command.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
