Subject: iscsi-target: Fix iser explicit logout TX kthread leak
From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 007d038bdf95ccfe2491d0078be54040d110fd06 upstream.
This patch fixes a regression introduced with the following commit
in v4.0-rc1 code, where an explicit iser-target logout would result
in ->tx_thread_active being incorrectly cleared by the logout post
handler, and subsequent TX kthread leak:
commit 88dcd2dab5c23b1c9cfc396246d8f476c872f0ca
Author: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

iscsi-target: Convert iscsi_thread_set usage to kthread.h
To address this bug, change iscsit_logout_post_handler_closesession()
and iscsit_logout_post_handler_samecid() to only cmpxchg() on
->tx_thread_active for traditional iscsi/tcp connections.
This is required because iscsi/tcp connections are invoking logout
post handler logic directly from TX kthread context, while iser
connections are invoking logout post handler logic from a seperate
workqueue context.
