Patch 1 of 1 This patch initializes the max_target_blocked field of a scsi target structure so that a queuecommand return value of SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY will actually result in having the scsi_queue_insert blocking the device queue before requeuing the command and running the queue. Otherwise, can and does cause livelock on single CPU configurations if/when open-iSCSI software initiator's command PDU window fills.
