[SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6

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
 Randy Dunlap and Dan Carpenter.]

+>>>>>>>>>> The TCM v4 fabric module script generator <<<<<<<<<<
+
+Greetings all,
+
+This document is intended to be a mini-HOWTO for using the tcm_mod_builder.py
+script to generate a brand new functional TCM v4 fabric .ko module of your very own,
+that once built can be immediately be loaded to start access the new TCM/ConfigFS
+fabric skeleton, by simply using:
+
+	modprobe $TCM_NEW_MOD
+	mkdir -p /sys/kernel/config/target/$TCM_NEW_MOD
+
+This script will create a new drivers/target/$TCM_NEW_MOD/, and will do the following
+
+	*) Generate new API callers for drivers/target/target_core_fabric_configs.c logic
+	   ->make_nodeacl(), ->drop_nodeacl(), ->make_tpg(), ->drop_tpg()
+	   ->make_wwn(), ->drop_wwn().  These are created into $TCM_NEW_MOD/$TCM_NEW_MOD_configfs.c
+	*) Generate basic infrastructure for loading/unloading LKMs and TCM/ConfigFS fabric module
+	   using a skeleton struct target_core_fabric_ops API template.
+	*) Based on user defined T10 Proto_Ident for the new fabric module being built,
+	   the TransportID / Initiator and Target WWPN related handlers for
+	   SPC-3 persistent reservation are automatically generated in $TCM_NEW_MOD/$TCM_NEW_MOD_fabric.c
+	   using drivers/target/target_core_fabric_lib.c logic.
+	*) NOP API calls for all other Data I/O path and fabric dependent attribute logic
+	   in $TCM_NEW_MOD/$TCM_NEW_MOD_fabric.c
+
+tcm_mod_builder.py depends upon the mandatory '-p $PROTO_IDENT' and '-m
+$FABRIC_MOD_name' parameters, and actually running the script looks like:
+
+target:/mnt/sdb/lio-core-2.6.git/Documentation/target# python tcm_mod_builder.py -p iSCSI -m tcm_nab5000
+tcm_dir: /mnt/sdb/lio-core-2.6.git/Documentation/target/../../
+Set fabric_mod_name: tcm_nab5000
+Set fabric_mod_dir:
+/mnt/sdb/lio-core-2.6.git/Documentation/target/../../drivers/target/tcm_nab5000
+Using proto_ident: iSCSI
+Creating fabric_mod_dir:

+Writing file:

+Writing file:

+Would you like to add tcm_nab5000to drivers/target/Kbuild..? [yes,no]: yes
+Would you like to add tcm_nab5000to drivers/target/Kconfig..? [yes,no]: yes
+
+At the end of tcm_mod_builder.py. the script will ask to add the following
+line to drivers/target/Kbuild:
+
+	obj-$(CONFIG_TCM_NAB5000)       += tcm_nab5000/
+
+and the same for drivers/target/Kconfig:
+
+	source "drivers/target/tcm_nab5000/Kconfig"
+
+*) Run 'make menuconfig' and select the new CONFIG_TCM_NAB5000 item:
+
+	<M>   TCM_NAB5000 fabric module
+
+*) Build using 'make modules', once completed you will have:
