Hello Nic,

Although the first version of my patch series that makes ABORT and LUN
RESET handling synchronous was posted six months ago, although this
patch series significantly improves reliability of the target core and
also improves source code readability and although the entire patch
series has received positive reviews from three experienced kernel
developers I am still waiting for feedback from you about the technical
aspects of these patches. You are the maintainer of the in-tree SCSI
target subsystem so it is your role to provide feedback on patches for
this subsystem.

The patch series I am referring to is "SCSI target patches for kernel
v4.4" (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi.target.devel/10365).

Bart.
