Sorry, I'm largely offline for the next week...

It looks OK to me (that's as close as I get to an ack :))

Nit:

The second `if' can be moved inside the first, but hopefully the
compiler already did that.

I have dim memories that doing

	local_irq_save()
	spin_lock()

is not equivalent to

	spin_lock_irqsave()

in some circumstances.  Perhaps a lockdep thing.  Or perhaps this was fixed in
the intervening years and this is no longer the case.

Such things probably won't be detected during 3.12-rcX because few
people will test iscsi, I expect.  So please be sure that you've
runtime tested it with all the lockdeppy things enabled. 
Documentation/SubmitChecklist section 12 has a list, but it might be
dated.
