Subject: [PATCH-v2 3/4] target: Fix bug with task_sg chained transport_free_dev_tasks release

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

This patch addresses a bug in the target core release path for HW
operation where transport_free_dev_tasks() was incorrectly being called
from transport_lun_remove_cmd() while releasing a se_cmd reference and
calling struct target_core_fabric_ops->queue_data_in().

This would result in a OOPs with HW target mode when the release of
se_task->task_sg[] would happen before pci_unmap_sg() can be called in
HW target mode fabric module code.  This patch addresses the issue by
moving transport_free_dev_tasks() from transport_lun_remove_cmd() into
transport_generic_free_cmd(), and adding TRANSPORT_FREE_CMD_INTR and
transport_generic_free_cmd_intr() to allow se_cmd descriptor release
to happen fromfrom within transport_processing_thread() process context
when release of se_cmd is not possible from HW interrupt context.
