Subject: [PATCH 3.14 02/68] target: Fix NULL pointer dereference for XCOPY in target_put_sess_cmd

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

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

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

commit 0ed6e189e3f6ac3a25383ed5cc8b0ac24c9b97b7 upstream.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference regression bug that was
introduced with:

commit 1e1110c43b1cda9fe77fc4a04835e460550e6b3c
Author: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@...hat.com>
Date:   Sat May 17 06:49:22 2014 -0400

    target: fix memory leak on XCOPY

Now that target_put_sess_cmd() -> kref_put_spinlock_irqsave() is
called with a valid se_cmd->cmd_kref, a NULL pointer dereference
is triggered because the XCOPY passthrough commands don't have
an associated se_session pointer.

To address this bug, go ahead and checking for a NULL se_sess pointer
within target_put_sess_cmd(), and call se_cmd->se_tfo->release_cmd()
to release the XCOPY's xcopy_pt_cmd memory.
