In the hardware data router case, introduced with kernel 3.2
commit 86a9668a8d ("[SCSI] zfcp: support for hardware data router")
the ELS/GS request&response length needs to be initialized
as in the chained SBAL case.
Otherwise, the FCP channel rejects ELS requests with
FSF_REQUEST_SIZE_TOO_LARGE.
Such ELS requests can be issued by user space through BSG / HBA API,
or zfcp itself uses ADISC ELS for remote port link test on RSCN.
The latter can cause a short path outage due to
unnecessary remote target port recovery because the always
failing ADISC cannot detect extremely short path interruptions
beyond the local FCP channel.
