[RFC PATCH 0/8] FC Sysfs and FCoE attributes

[Robert Love <robert.w.love@intel.com>]

The following series adds a new FC subsystem/sysfs layout
to the kernel. It also adds FCoE attributes to the new devices.
An initial usage by libfc, libfcoe, fcoe and fnic is also in
this series.

This change is quite large and touches a lot of things. My
current TODO list is:

1) target support
2) user space
   - libhbalinux: have a start on support, but not complete
   - libVirt
3) bnx2fc
4) sysfs usage: not sure I'm doing things correctly

At this point I have working code, but I would appreciate
any review comments as there are a lot of design decisions
to be made.

I apologize for the very large patches. I am not sure how
to break them up better. I have tried a few ways, but the
resultant patches tend to be more complicated than when
they are merged. Any suggestions on how to make these
patches smaller or more easily reviewable would be appreciated
as well.
