Problem: Changed from wake_up_interruptible -> wake_up_process and
wait_event_interruptible-> schedule_timeout_interruptible broke the FCoE
target. Earlier approach of wake_up_interruptible was also looking at
'queue_cnt' which is not necessary, because it increment of 'queue_cnt'
with wake_up_inetrriptible / waker_up_process introduces race condition.
Fix: Instead of fixing the code which used wake_up_process and remove
'queue_cnt', using work_queue based approach is cleaner and acheives
same result. As well, work queue based approach has less programming
overhead and OS manages threads which processes work queues.

Problem: HW DDP context wasn;t invalidated in case of ABORTS, etc...
This leads to the problem where memory pages which are used for DDP
as user descriptor could get reused for some other purpose (such as to
satisfy new memory allocation request either by kernel or user mode threads)
and since HW DDP context was not invalidated, HW continue to write to
those pages, hence causing memory corruption.
Fix: Either on incoming ABORTS or due to exchange time out, allowed the
target to cleanup HW DDP context if it was setup for respective ft_cmd.
Added new function to perform this cleanup, furthur it can be enhanced
for other cleanup activity.
Additinal Notes: To avoid calling ddp_done from multiple places, composed
the functionality in helper function "ft_invl_hw_context" and it is being
called from multiple places. Cleaned up code in function "ft_recv_write_data"

Both backstores and fabrics use arrays of struct scatterlist to describe
data buffers. However TCM used struct se_mems, basically a linked list
of scatterlist entries. We are able to simplify the code by eliminating
this intermediate data structure and just using struct scatterlist[]
throughout.
Also, moved attachment of task to cmd out of transport_generic_get_task
and into allocate_control_task and allocate_data_tasks. The reasoning
is that it's nonintuitive that get_task should automatically add it to
the cmd's task list -- it should just return an allocated, initialized
task. That's all it should do, based on the function's name, so either the
function shouldn't do it, or the name should change to encapsulate the
entire essence of what it does.

Previously, some control CDBs did not allocate memory in pages for their
data buffer, but just did a kmalloc. This patch makes all cdbs allocate
pages.
This has the benefit of streamlining some paths that had to behave
differently when we used two allocation methods. The downside is that
all accesses to the data buffer need to kmap it before use, and need to
handle data in page-sized chunks if more than a page is needed for a given
command's data buffer.
Finally, note that cdbs with no data buffers are handled a little
differently. Before, SCSI_NON_DATA_CDBs would not call get_mem at all
(they'd be in the final else in transport_allocate_resources) but now
these will make it into generic_get_mem, but just not allocate any
buffers.

Problem: After fixing the issue in TCM core w.r.t LUN Reset (Task
Management request) , ran into issue where during the completing of
this LUN Reset command, reference count of "ft_sess" drops to zero
which caused "sess" to be deleted.
Fix: As part of handling task management request (e.g. LUN Reset), TCM
core function "transport_generic_do_tmr" ends up calling ft_free_cmd
which in turn calls "ft_sess_put" (which drops session's reference
count by 1) and then frees ft_cmd. Then function
"transport_generic_do_tmr" calls "transport_cmd_check_stop" which in
turn also calls ft_free_cmd (which calls ft_sess_put - which drops
reference count of sess by 1, hence reference count of sess becomes
zero and session gets deleted). Fix is to just send response in case
of tmr from function "ft_queue_resp_code" and not delete "ft_cmd"
(means don't call ft_free_cmd). Earlier code was to send the response
code and also free ft_cmd. ft_free_cmd will be freed later after
sending response code as a result of "transport_cmd_check_stop" (which
calls ft_release_cmd -> ft_free_cmd) being called from
"transport_generic_do_tmr" after sening TMR response code.

access issue in TCM core (in LUN Reset codepath)

This patch fixes the issue by re-arranging the codepath where
transport_get_lun_for_tmr() is called after tmr request is allocated and
made it available as part of se_cmd.
It also drops the now unnecessary ft_get_lun_for_cmd() unpacking code, and
uses scsilun_to_int() directly ahead of transport_get_lun_for_cmd() and
transport_get_lun_for_tmr() usage.

This is a comprehensive patch for FC-FC4 provider. tcm_fc is a FC-FC4
provider which glues target core (TCM) with Fiber channel library
(libfc). tcm_fc uses existing FC4 provider hooks from Fiber channel
library. This Fiber channel library is used by FCoE (transport - FC
over Ethernet) protocol driver as well.
Combination of modules such as Fiber channel library, tcm_fc, TCM
target core, and FCoE protocol driver enables functional FCoE target.
This patch includes initial commit for tcm_fc plus additional
enhancement, bug fixes.
This tcm_fc module essentially contains 3 entry points such as "prli",
"prlo", "recv". When process login request (ELS_PRLI) request is
received, Fiber channel library (libfc) module calls passive providers
(FC-FC4, tcm_fc) (if any registered) "prli" function. Likewise when
LOGO request is received, "prlo" function of passive provider is
invoked by libfc. For all other request (e.g. any read/write, task
management, LUN inquiry commands), "recv" function of passiver
provider is invoked by libfc. Those passive providers "prli, prlo,
recv" functions interact with TCM target core for requested operation.
This module was primarily developed by "Joe Eykholt" and there were
significant contributions from the people listed under signed-off.
