This is a follow up to "scsi: Add intermediate STARGET_REMOVE state
to scsi_target_state".

If anyone has an idea how to create a regression test suite for the
target removal path I'd be all ears, given the fact that this is the
3rd or 4th patch targeting it.

Actually, could you reverse the order of these patches, please. It's
not safe to revert the soft lockup fix until after the intermediate
state is introduced. I'd rather we didn't go through a point in the
tree where the bug exists again.

You're right. I'll resend the series in reverse order.
