Hello, thanks for bumping this.
The fix right now is to revert the commit mentioned above: 659743b02c41 ("[SCSI] libiscsi: Reduce locking contention in fast path").
The commit's author don't want to revert the patch, and the discussion is stalled. We already reverted it in our internal distro, so it is our recommendation.

There is upstream discussion on this, the iSCSI maintainer proposed a patch to reverting it. The discussion is at http:// marc.info/ ?l=linux- scsi&m= 144730474819919 .
