Thanks to James Smart for the inspiration.

Stall error handler if attempting recovery while an rport is blocked.
This avoids device offline scenarios due to errors in the error handler.
Also verify that VirtDevice is available before issuing scsi command.
VirtDevice is removed when fc transport removes a target.

See James Smart's patch of 08/17/2006 for greater detail.

Also bump version number per Eric's request.

<title>[SCSI] mptfc: correct out of order event processing</title>

This patch corrects a problem in mptfc which can result in targets
being removed after executing an "lsiutil 99" reset of the fibre
channel ports.

The last rescan event was being processed before the setup reset work
due to an inappropriate optimization in the event processing logic.
Every rescan event is now queued for execution and the setup reset
work now executes in the proper sequence.

Fix's to insure proper status is returned to midlayer
when a task abort failed to be aborted by controller
firmware.

Also sanity checks to prevent scsi cmd from being
double completed during error recovery.

Using the port_id for the channel is completely unnecessary since the
host_id/target_id are constructed to be globally unique.  Also move
the mptsas driver on to virtual channel 1 for its raid devices.

This allows us to be rid of the machinery in mptsas for creating and
tracking port numbers.  Since mptsas is merely inventing the numbers,
the SAS transport class may as well do it instead.

<title>[SCSI] mptsas: eliminate ghost devices</title>

<content type='text'>
One of the current problems the mptsas driver has is that of "ghost"
devices (these are devices the firmware reports as existing, but what
they actually represent are the parents of a lower device), so for
example in my dual expander configuration, three expanders actually show
up, two for the real expanders but a third is created because the
firmware reports that the lower expander also has another expander
connected (which is simply the port going back to the upper expander).

The attached patch eliminates all these ghosts by not allocating any
devices for them if the SAS address is the SAS address of the parent.
