Subject: target: Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE caw_sem leak during se_cmd quiesce
From: Jiang Yi <jiangyilism@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 1d6ef276594a781686058802996e09c8550fd767 upstream.
This patch addresses a COMPARE_AND_WRITE se_device->caw_sem leak,
that would be triggered during normal se_cmd shutdown or abort
via __transport_wait_for_tasks().
This would occur because target_complete_cmd() would catch this
early and do complete_all(&cmd->t_transport_stop_comp), but since
target_complete_ok_work() or target_complete_failure_work() are
never called to invoke se_cmd->transport_complete_callback(),
the COMPARE_AND_WRITE specific callbacks never release caw_sem.
To address this special case, go ahead and release caw_sem
directly from target_complete_cmd().
(Remove '&& success' from check, to release caw_sem regardless
of scsi_status - nab)
