3.16.37-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx> commit 305c2e71b3d733ec065cb716c76af7d554bd5571 upstream. Now that we've done a more comprehensive fix with the intermediate target state we can remove the previous hack introduced with commit 90a88d6ef88e ("scsi: fix soft lockup in scsi_remove_target() on module removal").
