[ 05/16] target: Fix se_cmd->state_list leak regression during WRITE failure

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Sep 12 2013 - 14:19:13 EST


3.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c130480b129fbfd7932ad7af3f4ffcea630b027f upstream.

This patch addresses a v3.11 specific regression where se_cmd->state_list
was being leaked during a fabric WRITE failure, when the fabric releases
an associated se_cmd descriptor before I/O submission occurs, and normal
fast path callbacks have a chance to call target_remove_from_state_list().

It was manifesting with Poison overwritten messages with iscsi-target
once an ImmediateData payload CRC32C failure occured.

This bug was originally introduced during v3.11-rc1 with the following
commit:

commit 0b66818ac6de67a6125ae203272fb76e79b3a20f

target: Drop unnecessary CMD_T_DEV_ACTIVE check from transport_lun_remove_cmd
