Subject: [PATCH 3.14 072/110] Target/iser: Bail from accept_np if np_thread is trying to close

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

------------------

From: Sagi Grimberg <sagig@...lanox.com>

commit e346ab343f4f58c12a96725c7b13df9cc2ad56f6 upstream.

In case np_thread state is in RESET/SHUTDOWN/EXIT states,
no point for isert to stall there as we may get a hang in
case no one will wake it up later.
