So pending a bit more list feedback + testing across multiple fabric drivers, it's been added for the moment to target-pending/queue as post -rc1 material.
As it merged into target-pending/master next week, the extra stable CC' can be added to be picked up for linux-4.4.y stable and friends.
Also AFAIK, we've not had reports of other SCSI host environments triggering this bug, but it's still a good idea to consider it for linux-3.x.y backport at some point as well.
