> IBM, any updates on the recommended fix for this issue?

Hello, thanks for bumping this.
The fix right now is to revert the commit mentioned above: 659743b02c41 ("[SCSI] libiscsi: Reduce locking contention in fast path").

There is upstream discussion on this, the iSCSI maintainer proposed a patch to reverting it. The discussion is at http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=144730474819919 .

The commit's author don't want to revert the patch, and the discussion is stalled. We already reverted it in our internal distro, so it is our recommendation.

Cheers,

Guilherme
