CVE-2021-47290

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: target: Fix NULL dereference on XCOPY completion

CPU affinity control added with commit 39ae3edda325 ("scsi: target: core:
Make completion affinity configurable") makes target_complete_cmd() queue
work on a CPU based on se_tpg->se_tpg_wwn->cmd_compl_affinity state.

LIO's EXTENDED COPY worker is a special case in that read/write cmds are
dispatched using the global xcopy_pt_tpg, which carries a NULL se_tpg_wwn
pointer following initialization in target_xcopy_setup_pt().

The NULL xcopy_pt_tpg->se_tpg_wwn pointer is dereferenced on completion of
any EXTENDED COPY initiated read/write cmds. E.g using the libiscsi
SCSI.ExtendedCopy.Simple test:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000001a8

   ? transport_complete_task_attr+0x130/0x130 [target_core_mod]
   target_xcopy_do_work+0x61f/0xc00 [target_core_mod]

This fix makes target_complete_cmd() queue work on se_cmd->cpuid if
se_tpg_wwn is NULL.
