If the ibmvfc driver is in discovery attempting to log into a target
and it encounters an error, the command may get retried one or more
times, depending on the error received. If the retries are
unsuccessful such that the discovery thread gives up on discovery to
that target, the target ends up in a state where, if SCSI core had
previously known about the device, the host will get unblocked but the
host will not be logged into the target, causing any commands sent to
the target to fail. This patch fixes this so that if this occurs, the
target is deleted such that the normal dev_loss processing can occur
instead.

Due to an ambiguity in the VIOS VFC interface specification,
abort/cancel handling is not done correctly and can result in double
completion of commands. In order to cancel all outstanding commands to
a device, a cancel must be sent, followed by an abort task set. After
the responses are received for these commands, there may still be
commands outstanding, in the process of getting flushed back, in which
case, we need to wait for them. This patch removes the assumption that
if the abort and the cancel both complete successfully that the device
queue has been flushed and waits for all the responses to come back.

The ibmvfc log level filtering logic was reversed. The log_level scsi
host parameter should result in more verbose logs when log_level is
larger, not smaller.

[jejb: fixed up a ton of missed conversions.
All of you are on notice this has happened, driver trees will now
need to be rebased]

Add an ADISC to the target discovery job in order to sanity check whether or
not we need to re-login to the target.

This patch adds a new device driver to support the Virtual Fibre Channel
interface on IBM Power based servers. The Virtual I/O Server on IBM Power
servers utilizes N-Port ID Virtualization to export a Virtual Fibre Channel
adapter to the client. This driver is the client device driver.
