Subject: [PATCH 8/8] [LIO-Target]: Fix leakage of ISCSI_INIT_LOGOUT_CMND for CLOSESESSION or same CID CLOSECONNECTION cases

This patch remove the a incorrect special case in iscsi_release_commands_from_conn()
where ISCSI_INIT_LOGOUT_CMND for CLOSESESSION or same CID CLOSECONNECTION was leaking
iscsi_cmd_t assuming that (according to the comment) iscsi_logout_post_handler() would
be releasing iscsi_cmd_t (it never does).

In any event, because of the way that iscsi_handle_logout_cmd() works (it sleeps on
iscsi_conn_t->conn_logout_sem in iscsi_target_rx_thread()), it means that for a
successful logout, iscsi_release_commands_from_conn() will always be called from
iSCSI TX thread context *AFTER* iscsi_logout_post_handler() has been called.

Given this logic, we can safely remove this incorrect special case check in
iscsi_release_commands_from_conn().
