Subject: IB/srp: Avoid sending a task management function needlessly
From: Bart Van Assche <[email protected]>
commit 3780d1f08856f692116bcf026e4acf1c521df1c7 upstream.
Do not send a task management function if sending will fail anyway
because either there is no RDMA/RC connection or the QP is in the
error state.
