iscsi-target: Pre-allocate more tags to avoid ack starvation
commit 4a4caa29f1abcb14377e05d57c0793d338fb945d upstream. This patch addresses an traditional iscsi-target fabric ack starvation issue where iscsit_allocate_cmd() -> percpu_ida_alloc_state() ends up hitting slow path percpu-ida code, because iscsit_ack_from_expstatsn() is expected to free ack'ed tags after tag allocation. This is done to take into account the tags waiting to be acknowledged and released in iscsit_ack_from_expstatsn(), but who's number are not directly limited by the CmdSN Window queue_depth being enforced by the target. So that said, this patch bumps up the pre-allocated number of per session tags to: (max(queue_depth, ISCSIT_MIN_TAGS) * 2) + ISCSIT_EXTRA_TAGS for good measure to avoid the percpu_ida_alloc_state() slow path.
