Mike Christie 47a3565e8b vhost scsi: fix cmd completion race
We might not do the final se_cmd put from vhost_scsi_complete_cmd_work.
When the last put happens a little later then we could race where
vhost_scsi_complete_cmd_work does vhost_signal, the guest runs and sends
more IO, and vhost_scsi_handle_vq runs but does not find any free cmds.

This patch has us delay completing the cmd until the last lio core ref
is dropped. We then know that once we signal to the guest that the cmd
is completed that if it queues a new command it will find a free cmd.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
