I am not sure how this is working or what it fixes. During shutdown/reboot when 
the pci_driver shutdown callback is called, without the patch what is 
happening? Does the host shutdown cause iscsid to try and recover the session 
and that causes a shutdown/reboot hang?

I think you want to use ISCSI_ERR_INVALID_HOST. That would cause a clean 
shutdown of the sessions if iscsid is still up at that time. This would cause 
ep_disconnect to get called and a logout pdu to get sent.

ISCSI_ERR_CONN_FAILED just causes recovery to start (ep_disconnect will run if 
the ep is up and we will try to reconnect).

James,

I am looking into this issue raised by MikeC and would send a patch later to 
resolve this.

 So, I would like to withdraw this patch (15/18) now.

Thanks
Jay
