SubjectRe: [PATCH-v2 5/9] target: Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist
> This patch converts the fixed size se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[]

Still doesn't explain why core_tpg_clear_object_luns also disappears.

lun_status will always be active here as that's set and cleared at the
same time as the list addition / removal. Which means that lun_status
should go away in this patch.
