We do not need the sglist after calling virtqueue_add_buf. Hence we
can "pipeline" the locked operations and start preparing the sglist
for the next request while we kick the virtqueue.
Together with the previous two patches, this improves performance as
follows. For a simple "if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=128M iflag=direct"
(the source being a 10G disk, residing entirely in the host buffer cache),
the additional locking does not cause any penalty with only one dd
process, but 2 simultaneous I/O operations improve their times by 3%:

Keep a separate lock for each virtqueue. While not particularly

for multiple request queues. It is also more tidy as soon as

This is exposed in the case the FCP_DATA frames somehow got lost and fc_fcp got
the FCP_RSP, in fc_fcp_recv_resp(), since xfer_len is less than the expected_len
it resets the the timer to wait to 2 more jiffies in case the data frames are
already queued locally. However, for target does not support REC, it would just
send RJT w/ ELS_RJT_UNSUP. The rec response handler thus only clears the rport
flag for not doing REC later, but does not do fcp_io_complete() on the
associated fsp.
The fix is just check status of FCP_RSP being received already, i.e. using the
FC_SRB_RCV_STATUS flag, in fc_fcp_timeout before start sending REC. We should
have waited long enough if there is truely data frames queued locally.

sec 4.6.1 "If the Requesting_CT does not receive a Response
CT_IU from the Responding_CT within three times R_A_TOV,
it shall consider this to be a protocol error."
This means added four new states with management server

on default 12 second timeout(3 * R_A_TOV), so instead
just skip these states on very first timeout on any of
these states to not stuck with states for such longer

Noticed that we can shuffle the code around in fcoe_percpu_receive_thread a bit
and avoid taking the fcoe_rx_list lock twice per iteration. This should improve
throughput somewhat. With this change we take the lock, and check for new
frames in a single critical section. Only if the list is empty do we drop the
lock and re-acquire it after being signaled to wake up.
Change Notes:
v2) did some further cleanup on the patch by replacing the 2nd call of
spin_lock/splice_init with a goto to the top of the outer loop. This allows me
to change the inner while loop to an if conditional and remove the sencond check

Rapid ata hotplug on a libsas controller results in cases where libsas
is waiting indefinitely on eh to perform an ata probe.
A race exists between scsi_schedule_eh() and scsi_restart_operations()
in the case when scsi_restart_operations() issues i/o to other devices
in the sas domain. When this happens the host state transitions from
SHOST_RECOVERY (set by scsi_schedule_eh) back to SHOST_RUNNING and
->host_busy is non-zero so we put the eh thread to sleep even though
->host_eh_scheduled is active.
Before putting the error handler to sleep we need to check if the
host_state needs to return to SHOST_RECOVERY for another trip through
eh. Since i/o that is released by scsi_restart_operations has been
blocked for at least one eh cycle, this implementation allows those
i/o's to run before another eh cycle starts to discourage hung task
timeouts.

When managing shost->host_eh_scheduled libata assumes that there is a
1:1 shost-to-ata_port relationship. libsas creates a 1:N relationship
so it needs to manage host_eh_scheduled cumulatively at the host level.
The sched_eh and end_eh port port ops allow libsas to track when domain
devices enter/leave the "eh-pending" state under ha->lock (previously
named ha->state_lock, but it is no longer just a lock for ha->state
changes).
Since host_eh_scheduled indicates eh without backing commands pinning
the device it can be deallocated at any time. Move the taking of the
domain_device reference under the port_lock to guarantee that the
ata_port stays around for the duration of eh.
