Subject: IB/srp: Avoid that duplicate responses trigger a kernel bug

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@sandisk.com>

commit 6cb72bc1b40bb2c1750ee7a5ebade93bed49a5fb upstream.

After srp_process_rsp() returns there is a short time during which
the scsi_host_find_tag() call will return a pointer to the SCSI
command that is being completed. If during that time a duplicate
response is received, avoid that the following call stack appears:
