commit 1ff9918b625457ce20d450d00f9ed0a12ba191b7 upstream.

Problem: When initiator sends write command to target, target tries to
assign new sequence. It allocates new exchangeID (RX_ID)
always from non-offloaded pool (Non-offload EMA)

Fix: Enhanced fcoe_oem_match routine to look at F_CTL flags and if it
is exchange responder and command type is WRITEDATA, then function
returns TRUE instead of FALSE. This function is used to determine
which pool to use (offload pool of exchange is used only if this
function returns TRUE).

Technical Notes: N/A

<title>[SCSI] libfcoe: Remove unnecessary module state checks</title>

<id>d85e607b344d8fcd644456508a5bbe63ce011221</id>
<content type='text'>
libfcoe's interface consists of create, destroy, enable,
disable and create_vn2vn. These are currently module
paramaters added durring the module initialization. A
concern arose that the module parameters were being added
with write permissions before the module had completed
initialization. The following code was added to each
sysfs store file.

* Make sure the module has been initialized, and is not about to be
* removed.  Module parameter sysfs files are writable before the
* module_init function is called and after module_exit.
*/
if (THIS_MODULE-&gt;state != MODULE_STATE_LIVE)
    goto out_nodev;

This check was called out as unhelpful as the module can
go dead at any time and therefore its state isn't a reliable
thing to look at as a sign of stability and initialization
completion. Also, that functional interfaces like these
should be added after module initialization.

This patch removes the unnecessary checks and hopes to
disprove the concern about initialization ordering.

Recent fcoe transport rework changes now require fcoe
transports to register with libfcoe before any operation
can take place. libfcoe may access some static variables
but nothing that could cause a problem. Once a fcoe transport
is registered, libfcoe is usable and any interface calls will
be functional.

This patch adds a validation step before allowing creation of a new NPIV port.
It checks whether the WWPN passed for the new NPIV port to be created is unique
for the given physical port.

<content type='text'>
Currently fcoe interface cleanup is done after ndo_fcoe_disable
and that prevents logoff going out to the peer, so this patch
moves all netdev cleanup and its releasing inside
fcoe_interface_cleanup to have log off before ndo_fcoe_disable
disables the fcoe.

This patch also fixes asymmetric rtnl locking around fcoe_if_destroy,
as currently this function requires rtnl held by its caller
and then have this func drops the lock, instead now don't have
any processing under rtnl inside fcoe_if_destroy, this required
moving few func to get build working again.

When rmmoving the underlying fcoe transport driver module by force when
it's attached and in use, the correspoding netdev mapping should be
cleaned up properly as well, otherwise the lookup for a given netdev
for the transport would still return non NULL pointer, causing "unable
to handle paging request" bug.
