    target: Obtain se_node_acl->acl_kref during get_initiator_node_acl · 21aaa23b

    This patch addresses a long standing race where obtaining
    se_node_acl->acl_kref in __transport_register_session()
    happens a bit too late, and leaves open the potential
    for core_tpg_del_initiator_node_acl() to hit a NULL
    pointer dereference.
    
    Instead, take ->acl_kref in core_tpg_get_initiator_node_acl()
    while se_portal_group->acl_node_mutex is held, and move the
    final target_put_nacl() from transport_deregister_session()
    into transport_free_session() so that fabric driver login
    failure handling using the modern method to still work
    as expected.
    
    Also, update core_tpg_get_initiator_node_acl() to take
    an extra reference for dynamically generated acls for
    demo-mode, before returning to fabric caller.  Also
    update iscsi-target sendtargets special case handling
    to use target_tpg_has_node_acl() when checking if
    demo_mode_discovery == true during discovery lookup.
    
    Note the existing wait_for_completion(&acl->acl_free_comp)
    in core_tpg_del_initiator_node_acl() does not change.
