[SCSI] scsi_netlink: Add transport and LLD recieve and event support

This patch adds scsi netlink recieve and event support for transport and scsi LLDD's. It is a reimplementation of the patch posted last week by David Somayajulu. http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=121745486221819&w=2 There are a few things done differently: - Transport support is included - Event delivery is included - The vendor message is now its own unique message type, considered part of the generic "SCSI Transport". - LLDD entry points are now registered rather than included in the scsi_host_template. Background: When I started to implement the event handler via template, I had to either: muck up scsi_add_host and scsi_remove_host; or have the event handler search all possible shosts. Neither was acceptable. Moving to a registration solves this, and also limits the scope of the changes to something that could be backported to a distro without breaking an already-released-distro kabi. However, I admit it isn't as elegant, as the passing of the LLDD host template in the registration and the complexity around dynamic add/remove shows. - The receive path was augmented to require a unique identifier for the LLDD before the message was allowed to be handed off to the driver. Given how quickly very fatal errors occur if there's msg mismatches (which I saw in testing my own tools :), I believe this to be a very good thing. The id plays off the vendor id scheme already introduced for the vendor unique event messages used by FC. Additionally, the id use as the basis of the registration/deregistration. - Send assist functions, for both the transport and LLDDs are included.
