[stgt] [PATCH 0/2] [tgt]: Add proper STGT <-> bs_sg passthrough v2

Greetings STGT folks,

Here is another go at a proper STGT bs_sg passthrough following input from Tomo and Boaz.
After taking another look, it ended up making alot more sense to split up the queue and
completion paths into struct scsi_lu->cmd_perform() and struct scsi_lu->cmd_done() callers
to support existing 'internal STGT port emulation' and proper struct scsi_cmd -> LUN passthrough
for bs_sg with TCM_Loop ports.

Following Boaz's recommendation, I will next have a look at extending bs_sg to support BSG so we
can actually pass things like SCSI Task Attrs and TMRs into TCM_Loop ports.  Until then, please have
a look and let me know if anything is missing.  These patches have been tested using STGT/iSCSI <->
TCM_Loop iSCSI Target Ports on v2.6.34 via Open-iSCSI with SPC-4 ALUA.  Here is the brief status:
