[PATCH 3.8 123/133] iscsi-target: Fix ERL=2 ASYNC_EVENT connection pointer bug

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Apr 22 2014 - 17:18:15 EST


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

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

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d444edc679e7713412f243b792b1f964e5cff1e1 upstream.

This patch fixes a long-standing bug in iscsit_build_conn_drop_async_message()
where during ERL=2 connection recovery, a bogus conn_p pointer could
end up being used to send the ISCSI_OP_ASYNC_EVENT + DROPPING_CONNECTION
notifying the initiator that cmd->logout_cid has failed.

The bug was manifesting itself as an OOPs in iscsit_allocate_cmd() with
a bogus conn_p pointer in iscsit_build_conn_drop_async_message().
