Cleanup commands are issued to the firmware to cleanup any stuck ios
that are supposed to be implicitly aborted. In the worst case we can
have all scsi ios filling up the free_list and we may not be able to
allocate cleanup tasks. So the driver has to reserve free_list entries
to be able to allocate the cleanup tasks. This reserve free_list common
to all cpus is allocated as one additional entry in the per cpu
free_lists.
In bnx2fc_cmd_alloc(), there is a related fix to use get_cpu() for the
free_list_index. This will prevent using the wrong index if the CPU
is preempted.

This driver is for Broadcom Netxtreme II 57712 chip. The following
patch contains the driver sources for bnx2fc driver. libfc/libfcoe
changes to enable bnx2fc have already gone through the fcoe
tree. bnx2fc is a SCSI low level driver that interfaces with SCSI
midlayer, libfc, libfcoe, cnic modules. bnx2fc driver uses services
of libfc for slow path operations such as FIP and fabric
discovery. The fast path IO perations are performed after offloading
the session information to the underlying FCoE firmware.
