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.
