[PATCH 4.19 44/47] scsi: iscsi: Fix a potential deadlock in the timeout handler

commit 5480e299b5ae57956af01d4839c9fc88a465eeab upstream.

Some time ago the block layer was modified such that timeout handlers are
called from thread context instead of interrupt context. Make it safe to
run the iSCSI timeout handler in thread context. This patch fixes the
following lockdep complaint:
