If that isn't the case, we can fix it, but I'd like to see the evidence.

Hello James,

To my own surprise so far I have not yet been able to trigger a lockup without this patch. After I had inserted an msleep() call at the start of scsi_target_reap_ref_release() to delay the starget->state = STARGET_DEL assignment I rebuilt and rebooted the kernel, started multipathd and held a SCSI device open by creating a filesystem on it and by mounting it. Next I removed all SRP targets (for p in /sys/class/srp_remote_ports/*; do echo 1 >$p/delete & done). During this test no lockup was reported.

Bart.
