Re: [RFC 0/2] target: Add TFO->complete_irq queue_work bypass

From: Christoph Hellwig

This makes lockdep very unhappy, rightly so. If you execute
one end_io function inside another you basÑcally nest every possible
lock taken in the I/O completion path. Also adding more work
to the hardirq path generally isn't a smart idea. Can you explain
what issues you were seeing and how much this helps? Note that
the workqueue usage in the target core so far is fairly basic, so
there should some low hanging fruit.
