Problem: After fixing the issue in TCM core w.r.t LUN Reset (Task Management 
request)
, ran into issue where during the completing of this LUN Reset command, 
reference
count of "ft_sess" drops to zero which caused "sess" to be deleted.

Fix: As part of handling task management request (e.g. LUN Reset), TCM core 
function
"transport_generic_do_tmr" ends up calling ft_free_cmd  which in turn calls 
"ft_sess_put"
(which drops session's reference count by 1) and then frees ft_cmd. Then 
function
"transport_generic_do_tmr" calls "transport_cmd_check_stop" which in turn also 
calls
ft_free_cmd (which calls ft_sess_put - which drops reference count of sess by 
1, hence
reference count of sess becomes zero and session gets deleted). Fix is to just 
send
response in case of tmr from function "ft_queue_resp_code" and not delete 
"ft_cmd"
(means don't call ft_free_cmd). Earlier code was to send the response code and 
also
free ft_cmd. ft_free_cmd will be freed later after sending response code as a 
result of
"transport_cmd_check_stop" (which calls ft_release_cmd -> ft_free_cmd) being 
called
from "transport_generic_do_tmr" after sening TMR response code.

Notes/Dependencies: This bug was found after fixing NULL pointer access issue 
in TCM
core (in LUN Reset codepath)
