Re: iscsi: discovery session - logout

[Santosh Rao <santoshr@cup.hp.com>]

I agree that a discovery session type should be capable of processing a
logout command. This keeps the initiator's close_session() code the same
for normal & discovery sessions. 
No need to special case the handling of discovery sessions.
