[PATCH-v3 0/4] target: Eliminate se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member

["Nicholas A. Bellinger" <nab@daterainc.com>]

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

Hi all,

Here is v3 series with HCH's recent changes to go ahead and drop
all se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member usage within target-core in
favor of direct se_lun pointer dereference.

This includes the original patch + minor fixes, along with two other
improvements for killing off se_lun->lun_sep_lock via RCU pointer
access, and converting the remaining se_lun->lun_active busy-wait
special cases to existing percpu se_lun->lun_ref access.

Also included in the series is a recently discussed change to go
ahead and drop an unnecessary core_tpg_register() parameter, and
all associated target_core_fabric_ops forward declartions within
fabric driver code.

The series has been updated to follow Paul's recent comments for
RCU notiation using rcu_dereference_check() + rcu_dereference_raw()
for cases where dereference occurs outside of rcu_read_lock(),
with an external lock or reference already held.

The code is now sparse clean.

The changes since -v2 include:

  - Convert tpg_virt_lun0->lun_se_dev in spc_emulate_inquiry()
    to use rcu_access_pointer()
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in ALUA attribute code to use
    rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in TPG remove lun code to use
    rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in TPG add_node_to_devs() code to use
    rcu_dereference_check() w/ se_portal_gorup->tpg_lun_mutex
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in transport_lookup_cmd_lun() to use
    rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in transport_lookup_tmr_lun() to use
    rcu_dereference_raw() w/ lun_ref FIXME
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in core_disable_device_list_for_node()
    to use rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in core_dev_add_initiator_node_lun_acl()
    to use rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Convert se_lun->lun_se_dev in sbp_update_unit_directory() to use
    rcu_dereference_raw() w/ configfs reference comment
  - Adding missing sanity check in core_tpg_register() for
    se_tpg->se_tpg_tfo check + special case discovery usage comment

Please review.
