Curious …. What triggered this revert? Can you share your motivation for this revert.
Hi Himanshu,

It has been observed that the following scenario triggers a kernel crash:
- qlt_xmit_response() calls qlt_check_reserve_free_req().
- qlt_check_reserve_free_req() returns -EAGAIN.
- qlt_xmit_response() calls vha->hw->tgt.tgt_ops->free_cmd(cmd).
- transport_handle_queue_full() tries to retransmit the response.

I will add this information to the patch description.

Bart.
