Subject: iscsi-target: Avoid IN_LOGOUT failure case for iser-target

commit 72859d91d93319c00a18c29f577e56bf73a8654a upstream.

This patch addresses a bug reported during iser-target login/logout
stress testing, where iscsit_take_action_for_connection_exit() is
incorrectly invoking iscsit_close_connection() twice during IN_LOGOUT
state, after connection shutdown has already been initiated by
iser-target code.

Here is the backtrace:

This special case is still required by ISCSI_TCP transport during a
iscsit_handle_logout_cmd() failure case in iscsi_target_rx_opcode(),
but must be avoided for iser-target.
