That makes no sense.  Either it's a bug-fix to existing upstream code,
or it's not.

This patch was not a bug-fix to upstream, because it detailed a scenario
that doesn't existing in upstream.  That is, a case where ib_isert or
ib_srpt calls target_generic_free_cmd() with wait_for_tasks = true or a
case where wait_for_tasks = false blocks.
