Subject: target: Allow Write Exclusive non-reservation holders to READ
From: Lee Duncan <[email protected]>
commit 1ecc7586922662e3ca2f3f0c3f17fec8749fc621 upstream.
For PGR reservation of type Write Exclusive Access, allow all non
reservation holding I_T nexuses with active registrations to READ
from the device.
This addresses a bug where active registrations that attempted
to READ would result in an reservation conflict.
