Hello Nic,

I agree that this patch fixes a leak. However, an existing bug in
iscsit_free_cmd() is not addressed by this patch. Before the TMF code started
using kref_get() / kref_put() it was possible for transport_generic_free_cmd()
to determine whether or not iscsit_free_cmd() should call __iscsit_free_cmd()
by checking the command reference count. I think that since the TMF code
manipulates the command reference count it is no longer possible for
transport_generic_free_cmd() to determine this. If iscsit_free_cmd() is called
while a LUN RESET is in progress then the return value of
transport_generic_free_cmd() will be wrong. I will post a few patches that not
only address what I just described but also the leak fixed by this patch.

Bart.
