iscsi-target: Fix TMR reference leak during session shutdown



This patch fixes a iscsi-target specific TMR reference leak
during session shutdown, that could occur when a TMR was
quiesced before the hand-off back to iscsi-target code
via transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric().

The reference leak happens because iscsit_free_cmd() was
incorrectly skipping the final target_put_sess_cmd() for
TMRs when transport_generic_free_cmd() returned zero because
the se_cmd->cmd_kref did not reach zero, due to the missing
se_cmd assignment in original code.

The result was iscsi_cmd and it's associated se_cmd memory
would be freed once se_sess->sess_cmd_map where released,
but the associated se_tmr_req was leaked and remained part
of se_device->dev_tmr_list.

This bug would manfiest itself as kernel paging request
OOPsen in core_tmr_lun_reset(), when a left-over se_tmr_req
attempted to dereference it's se_cmd pointer that had
already been released during normal session shutdown.

To address this bug, go ahead and treat ISCSI_OP_SCSI_CMD
and ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC the same when there is an extra
se_cmd->cmd_kref to drop in iscsit_free_cmd(), and use
op_scsi to signal __iscsit_free_cmd() when the former
needs to clear any further iscsi related I/O state.
