This patch fixes a iscsi-target specific TMR reference leak during session shutdown, that could occur when a TMR was quiesced before the hand-off back to iscsi-target code via transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric(). The reference leak happens because iscsit_free_cmd() was incorrectly skipping the final target_put_sess_cmd() for TMRs when transport_generic_free_cmd() returned zero because the se_cmd->cmd_kref did not reach zero, due to the missing se_cmd assignment in original code. The result was iscsi_cmd and it's associated se_cmd memory would be freed once se_sess->sess_cmd_map where released, but the associated se_tmr_req was leaked and remained part of se_device->dev_tmr_list. This bug would manfiest itself as kernel paging request OOPsen in core_tmr_lun_reset(), when a left-over se_tmr_req attempted to dereference it's se_cmd pointer that had already been released during normal session shutdown. To address this bug, go ahead and treat ISCSI_OP_SCSI_CMD and ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC the same when there is an extra se_cmd->cmd_kref to drop in iscsit_free_cmd(), and use op_scsi to signal __iscsit_free_cmd() when the former needs to clear any further iscsi related I/O state.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
