Subject: [PATCH 0/6] scsi: target: Remove in_interrupt() usage.

Folks,

in the discussion about preempt count consistency across kernel
configurations:

 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200914204209.256266093@linutronix.de/

it was concluded that the usage of in_interrupt() and related context
checks should be removed from non-core code.

In the long run, usage of 'preemptible, in_*irq etc.' should be banned from
driver code completely.

This series addresses the target subsystem.
Most of in_interrupt() usage is debugging. There is one function which
either invokes wait_for_completion() or schedules a timer based on
in_interrupt().

Sebastian
