4.2.8-ckt6 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 7f54ab5ff52fb0b91569bc69c4a6bc5cac1b768d upstream. This patch fixes a recent ABORT_TASK regression associated with commit febe562c, where a left-over target_put_sess_cmd() would still be called when __target_check_io_state() detected a command has already been completed, and explicit ABORT must be avoided. Note commit febe562c dropped the local kref_get_unless_zero() check in core_tmr_abort_task(), but did not drop this extra corresponding target_put_sess_cmd() in the failure path. So go ahead and drop this now bogus target_put_sess_cmd(), and avoid this potential use-after-free.
