The timer for rport retries wasn't getting canceled, and
would occasionally go off after the module was unloaded.
Add logic to cancel the timer in fc_rport_work().
Since we cancel the timer before deleting the rdata,
it is no longer necessary to do a get_device() for the pending timer.

fc_rport_logoff drops the rport lock in order to cancel work
that may be pending. This is undesirable as the state can
completely change, and the caller may not expect that the
lock could've been dropped.
If there is work pending, it will acquire the rdata mutex and
so we're protected and can change the event from READY to DELETE.
Queue the work only if there is no event already pending.
There were a couple other cases where the state was set to
DELETE and work queued, even though the state may have already
been DELETE. Fix these using a common function fc_rport_enter_delete().

State RPORT_ST_NONE was intented to be an invalid state (0), never used.
This was a misguided attempt to be sure it was always initialized.
Having an extra state meaning nothing requires switch statements to
have a case covering that state.
State NONE has been used instead to mean the remote port is being deleted.

During an fcoe module unload, we saw a problem where fc_rport_work()
finds the lport has been freed. The rdata points to an area
containing 0x6b6b6b6b... the pool poison value from kmem_free().
In fcoe_if_destroy() we call fc_fabric_logoff() then fc_lport_destroy().
fc_fabric_logoff() flushes the remote port work, but we're still receiving
requests, and an RSCN or PLOGI arrives which creates more rports.
Note that although the LLD also checks link_up, it doesn't do it
under the lport mutex, so it can deliver frames to
fc_lport_recv_req() even after link_up is cleared.
So, re-check link_up there.
We need to flush the rports by calling disc_stop_final()
after we clear link_up.

When removing the fcoe module, several lports were being shut down
through fc_lport_fabric_logoff().
Occasionally, one would enter reset state before fc_lport_destroy()
was called, and since link_up was still true, it would log back in.
If we just clear link_up earlier, then we wouldn't be accepting LOGO
requests from other initiators while we are shutting down.
Fix by changing the LOGO response handler to enter DISABLED instead
of RESET. Add an fc_lport_enter_disabled() function which does
what fc_lport_enter_reset() did, except it doesn't proceed to FLOGI state.
Move the code that was common between fc_lport_enter_reset() and
fc_lport_enter_disabled() into a new fc_lport_reset_locked() function.

Currently the fc_exch_rrq is called with fc_exch's ex_lock held.
The fc_exch_rrq allocates new exch and that requires taking
ex_lock again after EM lock. This locking order causes warning,
see more details on this warning at :-
http://www.open-fcoe.org/pipermail/devel/2009-July/003251.html
This patch fixes this by dropping the ex_lock before calling
fc_exch_rrq().
The fc_exch_rrq needs to grab ex_lock lock again to schedule
RRQ retry and in the meanwhile fc_exch_reset could occur before
ex_lock is grabbed inside fc_exch_rrq. So to handle this case,
this patch adds additional check to detect fc_exch_reset after
ex_lock acquired and in case the fc_exch_reset occurred then
abandons the RRQ retry and releases the exch.

Rogue ports are currently not tracked on any list. The only reference
to them is through any outstanding exchanges pending on the rogue ports.
If the module is removed while a retry is set on a rogue port
(say a Plogi retry for instance), this retry is not cancelled because there
is no reference to the rogue port in the discovery rports list. Thus the
local port can clean itself up, delete the exchange pool, and then the
rogue port timeout can fire and try to start up another exchange.
This patch tracks the rogue ports in a new list disc->rogue_rports. Creating
a new list instead of using the disc->rports list keeps remote port code
change to a minimum.
1) Whenever a rogue port is created, it is immediately added to the
disc->rogue_rports list.
2) When the rogues port goes to ready, it is removed from the rogue list
and the real remote port is added to the disc->rports list
3) The removal of the rogue from the disc->rogue_rports list is done in
the context of the fc_rport_work() workQ thread in discovery callback.
4) Real rports are removed from the disc->rports list like before. Lookup
is done only in the real rports list. This avoids making large changes
to the remote port code.
5) In fc_disc_stop_rports, the rogues list is traversed in addition to the
real list to stop the rogue ports and issue logoffs on them. This way, rogue
ports get cleaned up when the local port goes away.
6) rogue remote ports are not removed from the list right away, but
removed late in fc_rport_work() context, multiple threads can find the same
remote port in the list and call rport_logoff(). Rport_logoff() only
continues with the logoff if port is not in NONE state, thus preventing
multiple logoffs and multiple list deletions.
7) Since the rport is removed from the disc list at a later stage
(in the disc callback), incoming frames can find the rport even if
rport_logoff() has been called on the rport. When rport_logoff() is called,
the rport state is set to NONE, and we are trying to cancel all exchanges
and retries on that port. While in this state, if an incoming
Plogi/Prli/Logo or other frames match the rport, we should not reply
because the rport is in the NONE state. Just drop the frame, since the
rport will be deleted soon in the disc callback (fc_rport_work)
8) In fc_disc_single(), remove rport lookup and call to fc_disc_del_target.
fc_disc_single() is called from recv_rscn_req() where rport lookup
and rport_logoff is already done.

This patch partially reverts an earlier patch (libfc: check for err when
recv and state is incorrect), by moving the state check back to before
checking for error. However, if the state does not match, then there is
an additional check to see if its an error ptr or a real frame before
jumping to err or out respectively.

If we've just created an interface and the an rport is
logging in we may have a request on the wire (say PRLI).
If we destroy the interface, we'll go through each rport
on the disc->rports list and set each rport's state to NONE.
Then the lport will reset the EM. The EM reset will send a
CLOSED event to the prli_resp() handler which will notice
that the state != PRLI. In this case it frees the frame
pointer, decrements the refcount and unlocks the rport.
The problem is that there isn't a frame in this case. It's
just a pointer with an embedded error code. The free causes
an Oops.

The fcoe_xmit could call fc_pause in case the pending skb queue len is larger
than FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH, the fc_pause was trying to grab lport->lp_muex to
change lport->link_status and that had these issues :-
1. The fcoe_xmit was getting called with bh disabled, thus causing
"BUG: scheduling while atomic" when grabbing lport->lp_muex with bh disabled.
2. fc_linkup and fc_linkdown function calls lport_enter function with
lport->lp_mutex held and these enter function in turn calls fcoe_xmit to send
lport related FC frame, e.g. fc_linkup => fc_lport_enter_flogi to send flogi
req. In this case grabbing the same lport->lp_mutex again in fc_puase from
fcoe_xmit would cause deadlock.
The lport->lp_mutex was used for setting FC_PAUSE in fcoe_xmit path but
FC_PAUSE bit was not used anywhere beside just setting and clear this
bit in lport->link_status, instead used a separate field qfull in fc_lport
to eliminate need for lport->lp_mutex to track pending queue full condition
and in turn avoid above described two locking issues.
Also added check for lp->qfull in fc_fcp_lport_queue_ready to trigger
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY when lp->qfull is set to prevent more scsi-ml cmds
while lp->qfull is set.
This patch eliminated FC_LINK_UP and FC_PAUSE and instead used dedicated
fields in fc_lport for this, this simplified all related conditional
code.
Also removed fc_pause and fc_unpause functions and instead used newly added

libFC is composed of 4 blocks supported by an exchange manager
and a framing library. The upper 4 layers are fc_lport, fc_disc,
fc_rport and fc_fcp. A LLD that uses libfc could choose to
either use libfc's block, or using the transport template
defined in libfc.h, override one or more blocks with its own
implementation.
The EM (Exchange Manager) manages exhcanges/sequences for all
commands- ELS, CT and FCP.
The framing library frames ELS and CT commands.
The fc_lport block manages the library's representation of the
host's FC enabled ports.
The fc_disc block manages discovery of targets as well as
handling changes that occur in the FC fabric (via. RSCN events).
The fc_rport block manages the library's representation of other
entities in the FC fabric. Currently the library uses this block
for targets, its peer when in point-to-point mode and the
directory server, but can be extended for other entities if
needed.
The fc_fcp block interacts with the scsi-ml and handles all
I/O.
