A VIOSRP_HOST_CONFIG_TYPE management datagram (MAD) has existed in the
code for some time. From what information I've gathered from Brian King
this was likely implemented on the host side in a SLES 9 based VIOS,
which is no longer supported anywhere. Further, it is not defined in
PAPR or supported by any AIX based VIOS.
Treating as bit rot and removing the associated host config code. The
config attribute and its show function are left as not to break
userspace. The behavior remains the same returning nothing.

The PAPR defines four valid header values for the first byte of a CRQ
message. Namely, an unused/empty message (0x00), a valid
command/response entry (0x80), a valid initialization entry (0xC0), and
a valid transport event (0xFF). Further, initialization responses have
two formats namely initialize (0x01) and initialize complete
(0x02). Define these values as enums and use them in the code in
place of their magic number equivalents.

The enum values for VIOSRP_LINUX_FORMAT and VIOSRP_INLINE_FORMAT are off
by one. They are currently defined as 0x06 and 0x07 respetively. These
values are defined in PAPR correctly as 0x05 and 0x06. This
inconsistency has gone unnoticed as neither enum is currently used. The
possible future support of PING messages between the VIOS and client
adapter relies on VIOSRP_INLINE_FORMAT crq messages. Corrected these
enum values to match PAPR definitions.

Add support to ibmvscsi for the capabilities MAD. This command gets sent
to the Virtual I/O server prior to login in order to communicate client
capabilities. Additionally it returns information regarding capabilities
that the server supports. The two main capabilities communicated in this
MAD are related to partition migration and client reserve. Client reserve
allows for SCSI-2 reservations to be sent to virtual disks which are backed
by physical LUNs and will result in the reservation being sent to the
physical LUN.

A new mode of error reporting, fast fail, has been added to the VIOS
which allows failover to happen more quickly.
If this new fast fail mode is enabled on the VIOS and the vSCSI client
supports the mode, the VIOS will not return MEDIUM error on path failures,
but rather return VIOSRP_ADAPTER_FAIL in the crq response, which
ibmvscsi will translate to DID_ERROR.
This new mode can be enabled for single path configurations as well,
so it is the new default error reporting mode. A module parameter is
provided to disable this new behavior on the off chance it causes a
problem on some old VIOS version.

Some versions of the Virtual I/O Server on Power

rather than 0. This fixes the ibmvscsi driver to treat this
response as success.

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!
