The following patches were made over scsi-misc.

The first 3 patches add a new state, SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE, which
can be used by transport classes to offline devices. This replaces
the behavior where they set some value in their check ready functions
then set the devices to running to fail IO.

The last patch has scsi-ml send a KOBJ_CHANGE event when transitioning
from SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE or SDEV_OFFLINE to SDEV_RUNNING.
