Improve performance by using multiple RDMA/RC channels per SCSI

- Set the SRP_MULTICHAN_MULTI flag during login for the creation

- RDMA completion vectors are chosen such that RDMA completion
interrupts are handled by the CPU socket that submitted the I/O

system contains n CPU sockets and m RDMA completion vectors
have been assigned to an RDMA HCA that IRQ affinity has been

If a cable is pulled during LUN scanning it can happen that the
SRP rport and the SCSI host have been created but no LUNs have been
added to the SCSI host. Since multipathd only sends SCSI commands
to a SCSI target if one or more SCSI devices are present and since
there is no keepalive mechanism for IB queue pairs this means that
after a LUN scan failed and after a reconnect has succeeded no
data will be sent over the QP and hence that a subsequent cable
pull will not be detected. Avoid this by not creating an rport or
SCSI host if a cable is pulled during a SCSI LUN scan.
Note: so far the above behavior has only been observed with the

If an SRP target is no longer reachable and srp_reset_host() fails to
reconnect then ib_srp will invoke scsi_remove_host(). That function
will invoke __scsi_remove_device() for each LUN. And that last
function will change the device state from SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE into
SDEV_CANCEL. Certain user space software, e.g. older versions of
multipathd, continue queueing I/O to SCSI devices that are in the
SDEV_CANCEL state.
If these I/O requests are submitted as SG_IO that means that the
REQ_PREEMPT flag will be set and hence that these requests will be
passed to srp_queuecommand(). These requests will time out. If new
requests are queued fast enough from user space these active requests
will prevent __scsi_remove_device() to finish.
Avoid this by failing I/O requests in the SDEV_CANCEL state if the
transport is offline. Introduce a new variable to keep track of the
transport state instead of failing requests if (!target->connected ||
target->qp_in_error), so that the SCSI error handler has a chance to
retry commands after a transport layer failure occurred.

This allows us to guarantee the ability to submit up to 8 MB requests
based on the current value of SCSI_MAX_SG_CHAIN_SEGMENTS. While FMR will
usually condense the requests into 8 SG entries, it is imperative that
the target support external tables in case the FMR mapping fails or is
not supported.
We add a safety valve to allow targets without the needed support to
reap the benefits of the large tables, but fail in a manner that lets
the user know that the data didn't make it to the device. The user must
add "allow_ext_sg=1" to the target parameters to indicate that the
target has the needed support.
If indirect_sg_entries is not specified in the modules options, then
the sg_tablesize for the target will default to cmd_sg_entries unless
overridden by the target options.

Instead of forcing all of the S/G entries to fit in one FMR, and falling
back to indirect descriptors if that fails, allow the use of as many
FMRs as needed to map the request. This lays the groundwork for allowing
indirect descriptor tables that are larger than can fit in the command
IU, but should marginally improve performance now by reducing the number
of indirect descriptors needed.
We increase the minimum page size for the FMR pool to 4K, as larger
pages help increase the coverage of each FMR, and it is rare that the
kernel would send down a request with scattered 512 byte fragments.
This patch also move some of the target initialization code afte the
