The purpose of this InfiniBand SRP initiator patch series is as follows:
- Make the SRP initiator driver better suited for use in a H.A. setup.
   Add fast_io_fail_tmo, dev_loss_tmo and reconnect_delay parameters.
   These can be used either to speed up failover or to avoid device
   removal when e.g. using initiator side mirroring.
- Make the SRP initiator better suited for use on NUMA systems by
   making the HCA completion vector configurable.
- Improve performance by making the queue size configurable.

Changes since the previous patch series are:
- Rewrote the srp_tmo_valid() to improve readability (requested by Dave
   Dillow).
- The combination (reconnect_delay < 0 && fast_io_fail_tmo < 0 &&
   dev_loss_tmo < 0) is now rejected as requested by Dave Dillow.
- Fixed a race between transport layer failure handling and device
   removal. This issue was reported by Vu Pham.
