In the error exits in target_setup_session(), if a branch is taken to free_sess: transport_free_session() may call to target_free_cmd_counter() and then fall through to call target_free_cmd_counter() a second time. This can, and does, sometimes cause seg faults since the data field in cmd_cnt->refcnt has been freed in the first call. Fix this problem by simply returning after the call to transport_free_session(). The second call is redundant for those cases.
