[PATCH 015/241] target: Fix double-free of se_cmd in target_complete_tmr_failure

[Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski]

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

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

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e13d5fef88c40b87c8430f8274c3a9ca32ef90bc upstream.

Fabric drivers currently expect to internally release se_cmd in the event
of a TMR failure during target_submit_tmr(), which means the immediate call
to transport_generic_free_cmd() after TFO->queue_tm_rsp() from within
target_complete_tmr_failure() workqueue context is wrong.

This is done as some fabrics expect TMR operations to be acknowledged
before releasing the descriptor, so the assumption that core is releasing
se_cmd associated TMR memory is incorrect.  This fixes a OOPs where
transport_generic_free_cmd() was being called more than once.

This bug was originally observed with tcm_qla2xxx fabric ports.
