Florian Westphal c8d0f63c15 iscsi-target: make sure to wake up sleeping login worker
commit 1c130ae00b upstream.

Mike Christie reports:
  Starting in 4.14 iscsi logins will fail around 50% of the time.

Problem appears to be that iscsi_target_sk_data_ready() callback may
return without doing anything in case it finds the login work queue
is still blocked in sock_recvmsg().

Nicholas Bellinger says:
  It would indicate users providing their own ->sk_data_ready() callback
  must be responsible for waking up a kthread context blocked on
  sock_recvmsg(..., MSG_WAITALL), when a second ->sk_data_ready() is
  received before the first sock_recvmsg(..., MSG_WAITALL) completes.

So, do this and invoke the original data_ready() callback -- in
case of tcp sockets this takes care of waking the thread.

Disclaimer: I do not understand why this problem did not show up before
tcp prequeue removal.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
