Some device handler types are not tied to the vendor/model
but rather to a specific capability. Eg ALUA is supported
if the 'TPGS' setting in the standard inquiry is set.
This patch implements a 'match' callback for device handler
which supersedes the original vendor/model lookup and
implements the callback for the ALUA handler.

Instead of issuing a standard inquiry from within the
alua device handler we can evaluate the TPGS setting from
the existing inquiry data of the sdev and save us the I/O.

This patch allows the user to set an "alias" of the disk via sysfs interface.
This patch only adds a new attribute "alias" in gendisk structure.
To show the alias instead of the device name in kernel messages,
we need to revise printk messages and use alias_name() in them.
Example:
(current) printk("disk name is %s\n", disk->disk_name);
(new) printk("disk name is %s\n", alias_name(disk));
Users can use alphabets, numbers, '-' and '_' in "alias" attribute. A disk can
have an "alias" which length is up to 255 bytes. This attribute is write-once.

The problem is that if we are doing a scsi scan then the device goes
into recovery then we will wait for the recovery to complete. It waits
because scsi-ml will send inquiries or report luns and the queueing code
will have been blocked due to the host not being ready. However, if we
are in recovery and then a scan is started the scan will silently fail
and some devices will not be added.
It is easy to hit the problem where devices do not show up with
FC where we are doing tests that disrupt the target controllers.
When the controller is disruprted (reboot, or setting firmware, etc),
and we cause the dev loss tmo to fire then devices will be removed
Then when the problem has been fixed, the rport will be scanned and
devices should be added back. But if we cause another disruption before
scanning has started then devices will not get added back. If the problem
is not started until the scan is started then the devices will be added
back.
This patch fixes that problem by not failing scans when the host
is in recovery. We will let scsi-ml send the IO and let the queueing
and scsi error handling deal with it like is done if we went into
recovery while scanning.
For recovery cases where the host is being torn down then with the
patch we will still fail the scan since there is not point in scanning.

Added new sysfs attr 'host_reset' in scsi_sysfs.c to
perform adapter or firmware reset as suggested by
Mike Christie here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=127359347111167&w=2
user/application can write "adapter" or "firmware" on
this attr and it will call newly added function hook
in scsi_host_template to call LDD adapter or firmware
reset implementation.

Offload drivers like qla4xxx will offload the sending of the login/logout
pdus still, so this patch adds iscsi_conn_login_event which is
used by these types of drivers to notify userspace that the connection
has changed state.
It also adds a iscsi_is_session_online helper so the lld
can query the sessions state field.

The iscsi class currently does not support writable sysfs

A iscsi host can have multiple interfaces. This patch
adds a new iface iscsi class for this. It exports the
network settings now, and will be extended to also
export iscsi initiator port settings like the isid
and initiator name for drivers that can support multiple
