From: Bart Van Assche bart.vanassche@wdc.com
[ Upstream commit 6eaf69e4ec075f5af236c0c89f75639a195db904 ]
Certain behavior of the initiator can cause the target driver to send both a reject and a SCSI response. If that happens two target_put_sess_cmd() calls will occur without the command having been removed from conn_cmd_list. In other words, conn_cmd_list will get corrupted once the freed memory is reused. Although the Linux kernel can detect list corruption if list debugging is enabled, in this case the context in which list corruption is detected is not related to the context that caused list corruption. Hence add WARN_ON() statements that report the context that is causing list corruption.
