Subject: [PATCH 3.16 73/87] scsi: vmw_pscsi: Fix use-after-free in
 pvscsi_queue_lck()

3.16.75-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

commit 240b4cc8fd5db138b675297d4226ec46594d9b3b upstream.

Once we unlock adapter->hw_lock in pvscsi_queue_lck() nothing prevents just
queued scsi_cmnd from completing and freeing the request. Thus cmd->cmnd[0]
dereference can dereference already freed request leading to kernel crashes
or other issues (which one of our customers observed). Store cmd->cmnd[0]
in a local variable before unlocking adapter->hw_lock to fix the issue.
