This makes ibmvscsi work correctly with the recent set of kexec
patches that went in. This is based on work by Michael Ellerman, who
chased this initially. He validated that it works during kexec.
Handle kexec correctly in ibmvscsi. During kexec the adapter
will not get cleaned up correctly, so we may need to reset it
to make it sane again.

The maximum size of a scatter-gather list that the current IBM VSCSI
Client can handle is 10. This patch adds large scatter-gather support
to the client so that it is capable of handling up to SG_ALL(255)
number of requests in the scatter-gather list.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
