Hi Jason,

"RDMA/rtrs-clt: Check state of the rtrs_clt_sess before reading its stats"
This patch is still necessary. Please apply that patch.

As I wrote in the description of patch
"RDMA/rtrs-clt: destroy sysfs after removing session from active list",
each function still should check the session status because closing
or error recovery paths can change the status.

For example, the client sends the heart-beat and does not get the
response, it changes the session status and stops IO processing.
It is ok if the status is changed after checking status because
the error recovery path does not free memory and only tries to
reconnection.

And closing the session changes the session status and flush all IO,
and then free memory.

Thank you for the review.
