With the recent addition of transport_check_aborted_status() within
transport_generic_request_failure() to avoid sending a SCSI status
exception after CMD_T_ABORTED w/ TAS=1 has occured, it introduced
a COMPARE_AND_WRITE early failure regression.
Namely when COMPARE_AND_WRITE fails and se_device->caw_sem has
been taken by sbc_compare_and_write(), if the new check for
transport_check_aborted_status() returns true and exits,
cmd->transport_complete_callback() -> compare_and_write_post()
is skipped never releasing se_device->caw_sem.
This regression was originally introduced by:

target: Fix handling of aborted failed commands
To address this bug, move the transport_check_aborted_status()
call after transport_complete_task_attr() and
cmd->transport_complete_callback().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
