>From looking at your current tree I suspect freeing the se_port structure
using kfree_rcu might be a better idea.  Together with dropping the references
to the se_device from call_rcu context this basically means all pointers
in struct se_lun are rcu protected which is much safer if you want
to access struct se_lun under rcu protection, as this avoids having to
deal with special cases.  Additionally that basically allows you to
replace lun_sep_lock with rcu_read_lock for anything remotely like
a fast path.
