The current usage of CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP and CMD_T_ABORTED is to
distinguish will command be aborted or finished at the connection release.
Technically that means who is in charge to decrease the command's kref.
The current usage of CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP and CMD_T_ABORTED is race free -
it checks and *changes* the state under a lock. They are mutually
exclusive.

If fabric driver knows that responses will not be completed by HW
then the fabric driver shall itself complete such responses.
Please do not shift this responsibility to LIO core.

CMD_T_STOP is some ancient logic that is used to move responses from a failed
connection to a new one during recovery in ERL=2.
I believe that CMT_T_STOP logic was reused at connection release just
to reduce conn/session use-after-free cases at command release.
Thanks to this patchset all commands in the connection are waited for
the completion in iscsit_release_commands_from_conn(). Is there any
sense to use CMD_T_STOP mechanism there now? I believe it's time to
remove it and to become like other fabric drivers - just wait for commands
in async manner. For connection release CMT_T_STOP is definitely
superfluous and error prone now.
The long story short, at connection release with ERL=0 I propose to
completely avoid CMD_T_STOP logic instead of reusing CMD_T_STOP logic.

For example, this snippet forbids kref decrement for CMD_TFABRIC_STOP
commands although it is supposed to happen - that is a decrement from
Core meaning that Core is not needed in this command any more.
