Subject: [PATCH] target: Fix incorrect usage of nested IRQ spinlocks in
 ABORT_TASK path
X-Extended-Stable: 3.5

commit ab74b3d62f05192bf8fb8f169e7999d1183b2e08 upstream.

This patch changes core_tmr_abort_task() to use spin_lock -> spin_unlock
around se_cmd->t_state_lock while spin_lock_irqsave is held via
se_sess->sess_cmd_lock.
