WTF: patch "[PATCH] qla2xxx: terminate exchange when command is aborted by LIO" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 4.1-stable tree?

[gregkh]

The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 4.1-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to 
<stable@vger.kernel.org> and let me know why this patch should be
applied.  Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

Subject: [PATCH] qla2xxx: terminate exchange when command is aborted by LIO

The newly introduced aborted_task TFO callback has to terminate
exchange with QLogic driver, since command is being deleted and
no status will be queued to the driver at a later point.

This patch also moves the burden of releasing one cmd refcount to
the aborted_task handler.

Changed iSCSI aborted_task logic to satisfy the above requirement.
