Subject: iscsi-target: Fix connection reset hang with percpu_ida_alloc
From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 555b270e25b0279b98083518a85f4b1da144a181 upstream.
This patch addresses a bug where connection reset would hang
indefinately once percpu_ida_alloc() was starved for tags, due
to the fact that it always assumed uninterruptible sleep mode.
So now make percpu_ida_alloc() check for signal_pending_state() for
making interruptible sleep optional, and convert iscsit_allocate_cmd()
to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE for GFP_KERNEL, or TASK_RUNNING for
GFP_ATOMIC.
