This fixes a bug where an initiator thinks a LUN_RESET has cleaned
up running commands when it hasn't. The bug was added in:

commit 51ec502a3266 ("target: Delete tmr from list before processing")

The problem occurs when:

1. We have N IO cmds running in the target layer spread over 2 sessions.
2. The initiator sends a LUN_RESET for each session.
3. session1's LUN_RESET loops over all the running commands from both
sessions and moves them to its local drain_task_list.
4. session2's LUN_RESET does not see the LUN_RESET from session1 because
the commit above has it remove itself. session2 also does not see any
commands since the other reset moved them off the state lists.
5. sessions2's LUN_RESET will then complete with a successful response.
6. sessions2's inititor believes the running commands on its session are
now cleaned up due to the successful response and cleans up the running
commands from its side. It then restarts them.
7. The commands do eventually complete on the backend and the target
starts to return aborted task statuses for them. The initiator will
either throw a invalid ITT error or might accidentally lookup a new task
if the ITT has been reallocated already.

This fixes the bug by reverting the patch.

Actually, this patch even fixes a crash that we've just faced.
The second LUN_RESET moves the first LUN_RESET from tmr_list to its
drain_tmr_list, then the first LUN_RESET removes itself from second`s
drain_tmr_list, then the second LUN_RESET tries to remove the first from
the list and crashes because it was deleted already.
So,

Unfortunately, I am revoking my tags. This patch leads to deadlock of two
LUN_RESETs waiting for each other in its drain_tmr_list.

To keep LUN_RESETs ignoring each other something like that is needed:

Shoot, that adds back the bug I was hitting.

I have an idea for how to fix both issues, but let me do some more testing
and will repost the set. Thanks for testing and reviewing this.

scst serializes LUN_RESET execution, may be we should do the same.

That's what I'm working on.

I was thinking async aborts are nice for ESX where you have N VMs on a LUN
and you don't want VM1's abort to have to wait for VM2's abort so left that.
However, for LUN_RESET, it has to wait for all the commands, so it's not as
bad to serialize them.
