Subject: [PATCH-v2 2/4] target: Fix interrupt context bug with stats_lock and core_tmr_alloc_req

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@...ux-iscsi.org>

This patch fixes two bugs wrt to the interrupt context usage of target
core with HW target mode drivers.  It first converts the usage of struct
se_device->stats_lock in transport_get_lun_for_cmd() and core_tmr_lun_reset()
to properly use spin_lock_irq() to address an BUG with CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
enabled.

This patch also adds a 'in_interrupt()' check to allow GFP_ATOMIC usage from
core_tmr_alloc_req() to fix a 'sleeping in interrupt context' BUG with HW
target fabrics that require this logic to function.
