Thanks for reporting this bug. Comments below.

So AFAICT for delayed commands, the above patch ends up skipping these
three checks subsequently when doing __target_execute_cmd() directly
from target_restart_delayed_cmds(), no..?
After pondering this some more, what about moving these checks into
__target_execute_cmd() to handle both target_core_transport.c cases
instead..?
We'll also need a parameter for internal COMPARE_AND_WRITE usage
within compare_and_write_callback(), to bypass checks upon secondary
->execute_cmd() WRITE payload submission after READ + COMPARE has
completed successfully.
WDYT..?
