This patch series makes the ib_srp driver better suited for use in a
H.A. setup because:
- multipathd is notified faster about transport layer failures.
- Transport layer failures reliably result in SCSI host removal.
- Switchover can be triggered explicitly by deleting an initiator
   device.
- Disconnecting from a target without unloading ib_srp is now possible.

This patch series is also available here:
http://github.com/bvanassche/linux/commits/srp-ha
And a backport of this patch series to kernels 3.6 and before is 
available here: http://github.com/bvanassche/ib_srp-backport.

Changes since v4:
- Added a patch for removing SCSI devices upon a port down event

Changes since v3:
- Restored the dev_loss_tmo and fast_io_fail_tmo sysfs attributes.
- Included a patch to fix an ib_srp crash that could be triggered by
   cable pulling.

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.
