core-iscsi v1.6.2.1 STABLE

Greetings all!

Attached is a new release of the core-iscsi stack that solves one of the items from RELEASE_NOTES (Netapp, Wasabi, SANRAD support) as well as a additional fix related to iSCSI Underflow handling involving the removal of a unnecessary 'return on error' condition. A big thanks to Dominik and Dustin @ VBI for making this release happen!

These are both a single line change, please see the code below:

CHANGELOG-1.6.2.1

1) Fixed iscsi_put_lun() to not include 0x4 at start of Flat Space 64-bit SCSI LUN Addressing (Wasabi+Netapp support added) that was causing a 'logical unit not connected' execption in INQUIRY readback data.
2) Only make noise when handling a Underflow mismatching between local missing read data value and resid.
