[SCSI] update fc_transport for removal of block/unblock functions

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.

@@ -1470,24 +1579,44 @@ fc_rport_terminate(struct fc_rport  *rport)
  * The LLDD calls this routine to notify the transport that a remote
  * port is no longer part of the topology. Note: Although a port
  * may no longer be part of the topology, it may persist in the remote
- * ports displayed by the fc_host. This is done so that target id
- * mappings (managed via the remote port structures), are always visible
- * as long as the mapping is valid, regardless of port state,
+ * ports displayed by the fc_host. We do this under 2 conditions:
+ * - If the port was a scsi target, we delay its deletion by "blocking" it.
+ *   This allows the port to temporarily disappear, then reappear without
+ *   disrupting the SCSI device tree attached to it. During the "blocked"
+ *   period the port will still exist.
+ * - If the port was a scsi target and disappears for longer than we
+ *   expect, we'll delete the port and the tear down the SCSI device tree
+ *   attached to it. However, we want to semi-persist the target id assigned
+ *   to that port if it eventually does exist. The port structure will
+ *   remain (although with minimal information) so that the target id
+ *   bindings remails.
  *
  * If the remote port is not an FCP Target, it will be fully torn down
  * and deallocated, including the fc_remote_port class device.
  *
- * If the remote port is an FCP Target, the port structure will be
- * marked as Not Present, but will remain as long as there is a valid
- * SCSI target id mapping associated with the port structure. Validity
- * is determined by the binding type. If binding by wwpn, then the port
- * structure is always valid and will not be deallocated until the host
- * is removed.  If binding by wwnn, then the port structure is valid
- * until another port with the same node name is found in the topology.
- * If binding by port id (fc address), then the port structure is valid
- * valid until another port with the same address is identified.
+ * If the remote port is an FCP Target, the port will be placed in a
+ * temporary blocked state. From the LLDD's perspective, the rport no
+ * longer exists. From the SCSI midlayer's perspective, the SCSI target
+ * exists, but all sdevs on it are blocked from further I/O. The following
+ * is then expected:
+ *   If the remote port does not return (signaled by a LLDD call to
+ *   fc_remote_port_add()) within the dev_loss_tmo timeout, then the
+ *   scsi target is removed - killing all outstanding i/o and removing the
+ *   scsi devices attached ot it. The port structure will be marked Not
+ *   Present and be partially cleared, leaving only enough information to
+ *   recognize the remote port relative to the scsi target id binding if
+ *   it later appears.  The port will remain as long as there is a valid
+ *   binding (e.g. until the user changes the binding type or unloads the
+ *   scsi host with the binding).
  *
- * Called from interrupt or normal process context.
+ *   If the remote port returns within the dev_loss_tmo value (and matches
+ *   according to the target id binding type), the port structure will be
+ *   reused. If it is no longer a SCSI target, the target will be torn
+ *   down. If it continues to be a SCSI target, then the target will be
+ *   unblocked (allowing i/o to be resumed), and a scan will be activated
+ *   to ensure that all luns are detected.
+ *
