4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit fce50a2fa4e9c6e103915c351b6d4a98661341d6 upstream.
This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference in isert_login_recv_done()
of isert_conn->cm_id due to isert_cma_handler() -> isert_connect_error()
resetting isert_conn->cm_id = NULL during a failed login attempt.
As per Sagi, we will always see the completion of all recv wrs posted
on the qp (given that we assigned a ->done handler), this is a FLUSH
error completion, we just don't get to verify that because we deref
NULL before.
The issue here, was the assumption that dereferencing the connection
cm_id is always safe, which is not true since:

iser-target: Fix possible deadlock in RDMA_CM connection error
As I see it, we have a direct reference to the isert_device from
isert_conn which is the one-liner fix that we actually need like
we do in isert_rdma_read_done() and isert_rdma_write_done().
