3.16.7-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Lee Duncan <lduncan at suse.com>

commit 1ecc7586922662e3ca2f3f0c3f17fec8749fc621 upstream.

For PGR reservation of type Write Exclusive Access, allow all non
reservation holding I_T nexuses with active registrations to READ
from the device.

This addresses a bug where active registrations that attempted
to READ would result in an reservation conflict.
