FYI, crash is here:

(gdb) l *(iscsi_tcp_segment_done+0x20d)
0xffffffff81b950bd is in iscsi_tcp_segment_done (drivers/scsi/libiscsi_tcp.c:102).
97	iscsi_tcp_segment_init_sg(struct iscsi_segment *segment,
98				  struct scatterlist *sg, unsigned int offset)
99	{
100		segment->sg = sg;
101		segment->sg_offset = offset;
102		segment->size = min(sg->length - offset,
103				    segment->total_size - segment->total_copied);
104		segment->data = NULL;
105	}
106	

So it looks to be sg = NULL, which means there's probably an issue
with the scatterlist...

-Dave.
