Hmm. Looking at the code it looks as we might miss some calls to
'complete'. Can you try with the attached patch?

Cheers,

Subject: [PATCH] iscsi_target: sanitze sess_wait_on_completion

When closing a session we only should set 'sess_wait_on_completion'
if we are actually calling wait_for_completion(). And we should indeed
call 'complete' in these cases, too.
And add some WARN_ON() if we mess up with calculating the number
of completions, too.
