Pull scsi target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "The highlights in this series include:

   - Improve sg_table lookup scalability in RAMDISK_MCP (martin)

   - Add device attribute to expose config name for INQUIRY model (tregaron)

   - Convert tcm_vhost to use lock-less list for cmd completion (asias)

   - Add tcm_vhost support for multiple target's per endpoint (asias)

   - Add tcm_vhost support for multiple queues per vhost (asias)

   - Add missing mapped_lun bounds checking during make_mappedlun setup
     in generic fabric configfs code (jan engelhardt + nab)

   - Enforce individual iscsi-target network portal export once per
     TargetName endpoint (grover + nab)

   - Add WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 emulation to FILEIO backend (nab)

  Things have been mostly quiet this round, with majority of the work
  being done on the iser-target WIP driver + associated iscsi-target
  refactoring patches currently in flight for v3.10 code.

  At this point there is one patch series left outstanding from Asias to
  add support for UNMAP + WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=1 to FILEIO awaiting
  feedback from hch &amp; Co, that will likely be included in a post
  v3.9-rc1 PULL request if there are no objections.

  Also, there is a regression bug recently reported off-list that seems
  to be effecting v3.5 and v3.6 kernels with MSFT iSCSI initiators that
  is still being tracked down.  No word if this effects &gt;= v3.7 just
  yet, but if so there will likely another PULL request coming your
  way.."

This adds virtio-scsi multi-queue support to tcm_vhost. In order to use
multi-queue, guest side multi-queue support is need. It can
be found here:

   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/18/166

Currently, only one thread is created by vhost core code for each
vhost_scsi instance. Even if there are multi-queues, all the handling of
guest kick (vhost_scsi_handle_kick) are processed in one thread. This is
not optimal. Luckily, most of the work is offloaded to the tcm_vhost
workqueue.

Some initial perf numbers:
1 queue,  4 targets, 1 lun per target
4K request size, 50% randread + 50% randwrite: 127K/127k IOPS

4 queues, 4 targets, 1 lun per target
4K request size, 50% randread + 50% randwrite: 181K/181k IOPS

In order to take advantages of Paolo's multi-queue virito-scsi, we need
multi-target support in tcm_vhost first. Otherwise all the requests go
to one queue and other queues are idle.

This patch makes:

1. All the targets under the wwpn is seen and can be used by guest.
2. No need to pass the tpgt number in struct vhost_scsi_target to
   tcm_vhost.ko. Only wwpn is needed.
3. We can always pass max_target = 255 to guest now, since we abort the
   request who's target id does not exist.

Changes in v2:
- Handle non-contiguous tpgt

Changes in v3:
- Simplfy lock in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint
- Return -EEXIST when does not match

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Revert iwlwifi reclaimed packet tracking, it causes problems for a
    bunch of folks.  From Emmanuel Grumbach.

 2) Work limiting code in brcmsmac wifi driver can clear tx status
    without processing the event.  From Arend van Spriel.

 3) rtlwifi USB driver processes wrong SKB, fix from Larry Finger.

 4) l2tp tunnel delete can race with close, fix from Tom Parkin.

 5) pktgen_add_device() failures are not checked at all, fix from Cong
    Wang.

 6) Fix unintentional removal of carrier off from tun_detach(),
    otherwise we confuse userspace, from Michael S.  Tsirkin.

 7) Don't leak socket reference counts and ubufs in vhost-net driver,
    from Jason Wang.

 8) vmxnet3 driver gets it's initial carrier state wrong, fix from Neil
    Horman.

 9) Protect against USB networking devices which spam the host with 0
    length frames, from Bjørn Mork.

10) Prevent neighbour overflows in ipv6 for locally destined routes,
    from Marcelo Ricardo.  This is the best short-term fix for this, a
    longer term fix has been implemented in net-next.

11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.  This
    mistake is largely because the ipv6 functions don't even have some
    kind of prefix in their names to suggest they are ipv6 specific.
    From Tom Parkin.

12) Check SYN packet drops properly in tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(), from
    Yuchung Cheng.

13) Fix races and TX skb freeing bugs in via-rhine's NAPI support, from
    Francois Romieu and your's truly.

14) Fix infinite loops and divides by zero in TCP congestion window
    handling, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Ilpo Järvinen.

15) AF_PACKET tx ring handling can leak kernel memory to userspace, fix
    from Phil Sutter.

16) Fix error handling in ipv6 GRE tunnel transmit, from Tommi Rantala.

17) Protect XEN netback driver against hostile frontend putting garbage
    into the rings, don't leak pages in TX GOP checking, and add proper
    resource releasing in error path of xen_netbk_get_requests().  From
    Ian Campbell.

18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with
    kzfree(), from Daniel Borkmann.

19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb-&gt;truesize, and ends
    up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet
    sending is halted indefinitely.  Just remove the adjustments
    entirely, they aren't really needed.  From Eric Dumazet.

20) ATM Iphase driver uses a data type with the same name as the S390
    headers, rename to fix the build.  From Heiko Carstens.

21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB
    to another, from Pravin B Shelar.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Revert iwlwifi reclaimed packet tracking, it causes problems for a
    bunch of folks.  From Emmanuel Grumbach.

 2) Work limiting code in brcmsmac wifi driver can clear tx status
    without processing the event.  From Arend van Spriel.

 3) rtlwifi USB driver processes wrong SKB, fix from Larry Finger.

 4) l2tp tunnel delete can race with close, fix from Tom Parkin.

 5) pktgen_add_device() failures are not checked at all, fix from Cong
    Wang.

 6) Fix unintentional removal of carrier off from tun_detach(),
    otherwise we confuse userspace, from Michael S.  Tsirkin.

 7) Don't leak socket reference counts and ubufs in vhost-net driver,
    from Jason Wang.

 8) vmxnet3 driver gets it's initial carrier state wrong, fix from Neil
    Horman.

 9) Protect against USB networking devices which spam the host with 0
    length frames, from Bjørn Mork.

10) Prevent neighbour overflows in ipv6 for locally destined routes,
    from Marcelo Ricardo.  This is the best short-term fix for this, a
    longer term fix has been implemented in net-next.

11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.  This
    mistake is largely because the ipv6 functions don't even have some
    kind of prefix in their names to suggest they are ipv6 specific.
    From Tom Parkin.

12) Check SYN packet drops properly in tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(), from
    Yuchung Cheng.

13) Fix races and TX skb freeing bugs in via-rhine's NAPI support, from
    Francois Romieu and your's truly.

14) Fix infinite loops and divides by zero in TCP congestion window
    handling, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Ilpo Järvinen.

15) AF_PACKET tx ring handling can leak kernel memory to userspace, fix
    from Phil Sutter.

16) Fix error handling in ipv6 GRE tunnel transmit, from Tommi Rantala.

17) Protect XEN netback driver against hostile frontend putting garbage
    into the rings, don't leak pages in TX GOP checking, and add proper
    resource releasing in error path of xen_netbk_get_requests().  From
    Ian Campbell.

18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with
    kzfree(), from Daniel Borkmann.

19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb-&gt;truesize, and ends
    up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet
    sending is halted indefinitely.  Just remove the adjustments
    entirely, they aren't really needed.  From Eric Dumazet.

20) ATM Iphase driver uses a data type with the same name as the S390
    headers, rename to fix the build.  From Heiko Carstens.

21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB
    to another, from Pravin B Shelar.

It's OK to get kick before backend is set or after
it is cleared, we can just ignore it.
