    target: Fix multi-session dynamic se_node_acl double free OOPs · 6af0acc0

    commit 01d4d673 upstream.
    
    This patch addresses a long-standing bug with multi-session
    (eg: iscsi-target + iser-target) se_node_acl dynamic free
    withini transport_deregister_session().
    
    This bug is caused when a storage endpoint is configured with
    demo-mode (generate_node_acls = 1 + cache_dynamic_acls = 1)
    initiators, and initiator login creates a new dynamic node acl
    and attaches two sessions to it.
    
    After that, demo-mode for the storage instance is disabled via
    configfs (generate_node_acls = 0 + cache_dynamic_acls = 0) and
    the existing dynamic acl is never converted to an explicit ACL.
    
    The end result is dynamic acl resources are released twice when
    the sessions are shutdown in transport_deregister_session().
    
    If the storage instance is not changed to disable demo-mode,
    or the dynamic acl is converted to an explict ACL, or there
    is only a single session associated with the dynamic ACL,
    the bug is not triggered.
    
    To address this big, move the release of dynamic se_node_acl
    memory into target_complete_nacl() so it's only freed once
    when se_node_acl->acl_kref reaches zero.
    
    (Drop unnecessary list_del_init usage - HCH)
