Kiran Patil e3e65c69c3 [SCSI] libfc:Fix for exchange/seq loopup failure when FCoE stack is used as target and connected to windows initaitor
Problem: Linux based SW target (TCM) connected to windows initiator
was unable to satisfy write request of size > 2K.

Fix: Existing linux implememtation of FCoE stack is expecting sequence
number to match w.r.t incoming framme. When DDP is used on target in
response to write request from initiator, SW stack is notified only
when last data frame arrives and only the pakcket header of last data
frame is posted to NetRx queue of storage. When that last packet was
processed in libfc:Exchange layer, implementation was expecting
sequence number to match, but in this case sequence number which is
embedded in FC Header is assigned by windows initaitor, hence due to
sequence number mismatch post-processing which shall result into
sending RSP is not done. Enhanced the code to utilize the sequence
number of incoming last frame and process the packet so that, it will
eventually complete the write request by sending write response (RSP)
GOOD.

Notes/Dependencies: This patch is validated using windows and linux
initiator to make sure, it doesn't break anything.
