We have several points in the SCSI stack (primarily for our device
functions) where we need to guarantee process context, but (given the
place where the last reference was released) we cannot guarantee this.
This API gets around the issue by executing the function directly if
the caller has process context, but scheduling a workqueue to execute
in process context if the caller doesn't have it. Unfortunately, it
requires memory allocation in interrupt context, but it's better than
what we have previously. The true solution will require a bit of
re-engineering, so isn't appropriate for 2.6.16.

This patch cleans up that interface by having the lld and class
pass a iscsi_cls_session or iscsi_cls_conn between each other when
the function is used by HW and SW iscsi llds. This way the lld
does not have to remember if it has to send a handle or pointer
and a handle or pointer to connection, session or host.
This also has the class verify the session handle that gets passed from
userspace instead of using the pointer passed into the kernel directly.

When the scsi_execute_async interface was added it ended up reducing
the flexibility of userspace to send arbitrary scsi commands through
sg using SG_IO. The SG_IO interface allows userspace to specify the
CDB length. This is now ignored in scsi_execute_async and it is
guessed using the COMMAND_SIZE macro, which is not always correct,
particularly for vendor specific commands. This patch adds a cmd_len
parameter to the scsi_execute_async interface to allow the caller
to specify the length of the CDB.

This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments.
Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c
like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs
class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not
buy very much at this time.
The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot
use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and
class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so
that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device
can still use the class.
This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered
when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then
read or write to the file.

When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes
crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to
let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given
transport class.
When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices
we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual
raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it.
So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from
scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets
the transport class control the user-initiated scanning. As this
plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook
goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do
something sensible.
For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to
synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely
unsynchronized which seems wrong.

In the scenario that a link was broken, the devloss timer for each
rport was expire at roughly the same time, causing lots of "delete"
workqueue items being queued. Depth is dependent upon the number of
rports that were on the link.
The rport target remove calls were calling flush_scheduled_work(),
which would interrupt the stream, and start the next workqueue item,
which did the same thing, and so on until recursion depth was large.
This fix stops the recursion in the initial delete path, and pushes it
off to a host-level work item that reaps the dead rports.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

We recently went back to implement a board reset. When we perform the
reset, we wanted to tear down the internal data structures and rebuild
them. Unfortunately, when it came to the rport structure, things were
odd. If we deleted them, the scsi targets and sdevs would be
torn down. Not a good thing for a temporary reset. We could block the
rports, but we either maintain the internal structures to keep the
rport reference (perhaps even replicating what's in the transport),
or we have to fatten the fc transport with new search routines to find
the rport (and deal with a case of a dangling rport that the driver
forgets).
It dawned on me that we had actually reached this state incorrectly.
When the fc transport first started, we did the block/unblock first, then
added the rport interface. The purpose of block/unblock is to hide the
temporary disappearance of the rport (e.g. being deleted, then readded).
Why are we making the driver do the block/unblock ? We should be making
the transport have only an rport add/delete, and the let the transport
handle the block/unblock.
So... This patch removes the existing fc_remote_port_block/unblock
functions. It moves the block/unblock functionality into the
fc_remote_port_add/delete functions. Updates for the lpfc driver are
included. Qlogic driver updates are also enclosed, thanks to the
contributions of Andrew Vasquez. [Note: the qla2xxx changes are
relative to the scsi-misc-2.6 tree as of this morning - which does
not include the recent patches sent by Andrew]. The zfcp driver does
not use the block/unblock functions.
One last comment: The resulting behavior feels very clean. The LLDD is
concerned only with add/delete, which corresponds to the physical
disappearance. However, the fact that the scsi target and sdevs are
not immediately torn down after the LLDD calls delete causes an
interesting scenario... the midlayer can call the xxx_slave_alloc and
xxx_queuecommand functions with a sdev that is at the location the
rport used to be. The driver must validate the device exists when it
first enters these functions. In thinking about it, this has always
been the case for the LLDD and these routines. The existing drivers
already check for existence. However, this highlights that simple
validation via data structure dereferencing needs to be watched.
To deal with this, a new transport function, fc_remote_port_chkready()
was created that LLDDs should call when they first enter these two
routines. It validates the rport state, and returns a scsi result
which could be returned. In addition to solving the above, it also
creates consistent behavior from the LLDD's when the block and deletes
are occuring.
