iSCSI : Abort Task Response violates SAM-2.

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

Julian,

SAM-2 Rev 15 Section 6.1 states that  :

"a response of FUNCTION COMPLETE shall indicate task was aborted or task was
not in task set".

The iSCSI draft is violating SAM-2 by returning "task not found" when the task
was not in task set.

Thanks,
Santosh
