[PATCH v2 01/18] scsi-multipath: introduce basic SCSI device support

[John Garry <john.g.garry@oracle.com>]

For a scsi_device to support multipath, introduce structure
scsi_mpath_device to hold multipath-specific details.

Like nvme_ns structure for NVME, scsi_mpath_device holds the mpath_device
structure to device management and path selection.

A module param are introduced to enable multipath - the following modes
are available:
- on
- off
- always

SCSI multipath will only be available until the following conditions:
- scsi_multipath enabled and ALUA supported and unique ID available in
  VPD page 83.
- scsi_multipath always mode and unique ID available in VPD page 83

The scsi_device structure contains a pointer to scsi_mpath_device; having
this pointer set or unset indicates whether multipath is enabled or
disabled for the scsi_device.
