target: Drop iSCSI use of mutex around max_cmd_sn increment
In a performance profile, taking a mutex in iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn() shows up very high. However taking a mutex around "sess->max_cmd_sn += 1" seems pretty silly: we're not serializing against other contexts in any useful way. I did a quick audit and there don't appear to be any other places that use max_cmd_sn within the mutex more than once, so this lock can't be providing any useful serialization.
