The first thing that comes to mind for zfcp is libzfcphbaapi and simply 
run its tools for starters. They issue a few different CT GLS requests.
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/com.ibm.linux.z.lhdd/lhdd_t_fcp_api_runappl.html
or
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/com.ibm.linux.z.lgdd/lgdd_t_fcp_api_runappl.html
(upstream: 
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/linux390/zfcp-hbaapi.html)

Theoretically above tools could be built against libHBAAPI on other 
architectures.
Currently I don't have anything handy for ELS requests.

Maybe there is some common code tool (possibly building directly on BSG 
IOCTL) to exercise more code paths?

Just as a heads up the result of my example run (need to dig deeper why 
it crashed):

# zfcp_show -n

nice

I pushed your patches on today's linux.git, i.e. post v4.8 with zfcp 
fixes of v4.9 merge window already included and it did build with our 
default_defconfig but qdio and zfcp as modules rather than built-in.

> * Make bsg_job_get() call kref_get_unless_zero() and use it in scsi_transport_fc.c

Perfect, I had planned to suggest this based on v1 of the patch set.
