From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch fixes a bug in iser-target code where the REJECT CM event handler code currently performs a isert_put_conn() for the final isert_conn->kref put, while iscsi_np process context is still blocked in isert_get_login_rx(). Once isert_get_login_rx() is awoking due to login timeout, iscsi_np process context will attempt to invoke iscsi_target_login_sess_out() to cleanup iscsi_conn as expected, and calls isert_wait_conn() + isert_free_conn() which triggers the use-after-free OOPs. To address this bug, move the kref_get_unless_zero() call from isert_connected_handler() into isert_connect_request() immediately preceeding isert_rdma_accept() to ensure the CM handler cleanup paths and isert_free_conn() are always operating with two refs.
