Please start putting a prefix "fcoe: ", "libfc: " or "libfcoe: " on your
patch titles. Also, please provide more meaningful commit messages. I
believe that I've pointed out these two issues with your patches before.

We do not want to proceed with sending a FLOGI here when we're in
point-to-multipoint (VN2VN) mode. VN2VN is a mode where there is no
fabric and we FLOGI directly into the remote port. So for VN2VN the
FLOGI happens in the rport layer.
