This patch series makes the ib_srp driver better suited for use in a H.A. setup because:
- Switchover can be triggered explicitly by deleting an initiator device.
- Disconnecting from a target without unloading ib_srp becomes possible.

Changes since v2:
- Addressed the v2 review comments.
- Dropped the patches that have already been merged.
- Dropped the patches for integration with multipathd.
- Dropped the micro-optimization of the IB completion handlers.
