[PATCH 3.11 044/144] iscsi-target: Perform release of acknowledged tags from RX context

[Luis Henriques]

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

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

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f56cbbb4b5871e5bc2838ddeeba5b29debc2a734 upstream.

This patch converts iscsit_ack_from_expstatsn() to populate a local
ack_list of commands, and call iscsit_free_cmd() directly from RX
thread context, instead of using iscsit_add_cmd_to_immediate_queue()
to queue the acknowledged commands to be released from TX thread
context.

It is helpful to release the acknowledge commands as quickly as
possible, along with the associated percpu_ida tags, in order to
prevent percpu_ida_alloc() from having to steal tags from other
CPUs while waiting for iscsit_free_cmd() to happen from TX thread
context.
