The patch might be OK.  But the code that it fixed is... stunning.

void se_clear_dev_ports(struct se_device *dev)
{
	struct se_hba *hba = dev->se_hba;
	struct se_lun *lun;
	struct se_portal_group *tpg;
	struct se_port *sep, *sep_tmp;

	spin_lock(&dev->se_port_lock);
	list_for_each_entry_safe(sep, sep_tmp, &dev->dev_sep_list, sep_list) {
		spin_unlock(&dev->se_port_lock);
		spin_unlock(&hba->device_lock);

		lun = sep->sep_lun;
		tpg = sep->sep_tpg;
		spin_lock(&lun->lun_sep_lock);
		if (lun->lun_se_dev == NULL) {
			spin_unlock(&lun->lun_sep_lock);
			continue;
		}
		spin_unlock(&lun->lun_sep_lock);

		core_dev_del_lun(tpg, lun->unpacked_lun);

		spin_lock(&hba->device_lock);
		spin_lock(&dev->se_port_lock);
	}
	spin_unlock(&dev->se_port_lock);

	return;
}

Can this mess of releasing and reacquiring locks --- which looks all rather
dangerous --- be cleaned up if you move the logical units (?) to be deleted
over to a secondary list?
