The patch fixes the following situations where NOP-Out pkt is called for: - local unsolicited NOP-Out requests (requesting no NOP-In response) - local NOP-Out responses to unsolicited NOP-In requests kernel panic is observed due to double session spin_lock requests; one in the bnx2i_process_nopin_local_cmpl routine in bnx2i_hwi.c and the other in the iscsi_put_task routine in libiscsi.c The proposed fix is to export the currently static __iscsi_put_task() routine and have bnx2i call it directly instead of the iscsi_put_task() routine which holds the session spin lock.
