2015-05-30	target: refactor init/drop_nodeacl methods	Christoph Hellwig	1	-2/+2
	By always allocating and adding, respectively removing and freeing the se_node_acl structure in core code we can remove tons of repeated code in the init_nodeacl and drop_nodeacl routines. Additionally this now respects the get_default_queue_depth method in this code path as well. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>
