[PATCH] iscsi_tcp: Evaluate socket state in data_ready()

2009-07-27 Thread Hannes Reinecke
The network core will call state_change() callback prior to the data_ready() callback, which might cause us to lose a connection state change. So we have to evaluate the socket state at the end of the data_ready() callback, too. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/scsi/iscsi_tcp.c | 1
