Pull SCSI target fixes from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "The highlights this merge window include:

   - Allow target fabric drivers to function as built-in.  (Roland)
   - Fix tcm_loop multi-TPG endpoint nexus bug.  (Hannes)
   - Move per device config_item_type into se_subsystem_api, allowing
     configfs attributes to be defined at module_init time.  (Jerome +
     nab)
   - Convert existing IBLOCK/FILEIO/RAMDISK/PSCSI/TCMU drivers to use
     external configfs attributes.  (nab)
   - A number of iser-target fixes related to active session + network
     portal shutdown stability during extended stress testing.  (Sagi +
     Slava)
   - Dynamic allocation of T10-PI contexts for iser-target, fixing a
     potentially bogus iscsi_np-&gt;tpg_np pointer reference in &gt;= v3.14
     code.  (Sagi)
   - iser-target performance + scalability improvements.  (Sagi)
   - Fixes for SPC-4 Persistent Reservation AllRegistrants spec
     compliance.  (Ilias + James + nab)
   - Avoid potential short kern_sendmsg() in iscsi-target for now until
     Al's conversion to use msghdr iteration is merged post -rc1.
     (Viro)

  Also, Sagi has requested a number of iser-target patches (9) that
  address stability issues he's encountered during extended stress
  testing be considered for v3.10.y + v3.14.y code.  Given the amount of
  LOC involved, it will certainly require extra backporting effort.

  Apologies in advance to Greg-KH &amp; Co on this.  Sagi and I will be
  working post-merge to ensure they each get applied correctly"

* Implement the relevant invalidation functions (zap MTTs as needed)
* Implement interlocking (and rollback in the page fault handlers) for
  cases of a racing notifier and fault.
* With this patch we can now enable the capability bits for supporting RC

This patch implement a page fault handler (leaving the pages pinned as
of time being).  The page fault handler handles initiator and responder
page faults for UD/RC transports, for send/receive operations, as well
as RDMA read/write initiator support.

<title>IB/mlx5: Add mlx5_ib_update_mtt to update page tables after creation</title>

<id>832a6b06ab5e13c228fc27e333ad360aa03ace6f</id>
<content type='text'>
The new function allows updating the page tables of a memory region
after it was created. This can be used to handle page faults and page
invalidations.

Since mlx5_ib_update_mtt will need to work from within page invalidation,
so it must not block on memory allocation. It employs an atomic memory
allocation mechanism that is used as a fallback when kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) fails.

In order to reuse code from mlx5_ib_populate_pas, the patch splits
this function and add the needed parameters.

<title>IB/mlx5: Changes in memory region creation to support on-demand paging</title>

<id>cc149f751b75211df8c41fcd60bd0006e6143ed6</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch wraps together several changes needed for on-demand paging support
in the mlx5_ib_populate_pas function, and when registering memory regions.

* Instead of accepting a UMR bit telling the function to enable all
  access flags, the function now accepts the access flags themselves.
* For on-demand paging memory regions, fill the memory tables from the
  correct list, and enable/disable the access flags per-page according
  to whether the page is present.
* A new bit is set to enable writing of access flags when using the
  firmware create_mkey command.
* Disable contig pages when on-demand paging is enabled.

In addition the patch changes the UMR code to use PTR_ALIGN instead of
our own macro.
