4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ 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> Date: Thu Feb 26 22:19:15 2015 -0800 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.
