scsi: zfcp: Lift Input Queue tasklet from qdio
Shift the IRQ tasklet processing from the qdio layer into zfcp. This will allow for a good amount of cleanups in qdio, and provides future opportunity to improve the IRQ processing inside zfcp. We continue to use the qdio layer's internal tasklet/timer mechanism (ie. scan_threshold etc) to check for Request Queue completions. Initially we planned to check for such completions after inspecting the Response Queue - this should typically work, but there's a theoretical race where the device only presents the Request Queue completions _after_ all Response Queue processing has finished. If the Request Queue is then also _completely_ full, we could send no further IOs and thus get no interrupt that would trigger an inspection of the Request Queue. So for now stick to the old model, where we can trust that such a race would be recovered by qdio's internal timer. Code-flow wise, this establishes two levels of control: 1. The qdio layer will only deliver IRQs to the device driver if the QDIO_IRQ_DISABLED flag is cleared. zfcp manages this through qdio_start_irq() / qdio_stop_irq(). The initial state is DISABLED, and zfcp_qdio_open() schedules zfcp's IRQ tasklet once during startup to explicitly enable IRQ delivery. 2. The zfcp tasklet is initialized with tasklet_disable(), and only gets enabled once we open the qdio device. When closing the qdio device, we must disable the tasklet _before_ disabling IRQ delivery (otherwise a concurrently running tasklet could re-enable IRQ delivery after we disabled it). A final tasklet_kill() during teardown ensures that no lingering tasklet_schedule() is still accessing the tasklet structure.
