This patch contains the squashed version of a number of cleanups and
minor fixes from Andy's initial series (round 1) for target core this
past spring. The condensed log looks like:
target: use errno values instead of returning -1 for everything
target: Rename transport_calc_sg_num to transport_init_task_sg
target: Fix leak in error path in transport_init_task_sg
target/pscsi: Remove pscsi_get_sh() usage
target: Make two runtime checks into WARN_ONs
target: Remove hba queue depth and convert to spin_lock_irq usage
target: dev->dev_status_queue_obj is unused
target: Make struct se_queue_req.cmd type struct se_cmd *
target: Remove __transport_get_qr_from_queue()
target: Rename se_dev->g_se_dev_list to se_dev_node
target: Remove struct se_global
target: Simplify scsi mib index table code
target: Make dev_queue_obj a member of se_device instead of a pointer
target: remove extraneous returns at end of void functions
target: Ensure transport_dump_vpd_ident_type returns null-terminated str
target: Function pointers don't need to use '&' to be assigned
target: Fix comment in __transport_execute_tasks()
target: Misc style cleanups
target: rename struct pr_reservation_template to pr_reservation
target: Remove #defines that just perform indirection

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:
High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.
Advanced SCSI feature set:
* Persistent Reservations (PRs)
* Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
* Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
* Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
* Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
* Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)
Multiprotocol target plugins
Storage media independence:
* Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
* No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
* Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.
Standards compliance:
* Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
* Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA
Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.
[jejb: fix up for new block bdev exclusive interface. Minor fixes from
