Since fc_fcp_cleanup_cmd() can sleep this function must not
be called while holding a spinlock. This patch avoids that
fc_fcp_cleanup_each_cmd() triggers the following bug:

Due to patch "libfc: Do not invoke the response handler after
fc_exch_done()" (commit ID 7030fd62) the lport_recv() call
in fc_exch_recv_req() is passed a dangling pointer. Avoid this
by moving the fc_frame_free() call from fc_invoke_resp() to its
callers. This patch fixes the following crash:

general protection fault: 0000 [#3] PREEMPT SMP

Drop the now unused reason argument from the -&gt;change_queue_depth method.
Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to
scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default
-&gt;change_queue_depth implementation.

All drivers use the implementation for ramping the queue up and down, so
instead of overloading the change_queue_depth method call the
implementation diretly if the driver opts into it by setting the
track_queue_depth flag in the host template.

Note that a few drivers validated the new queue depth in their
change_queue_depth method, but as we never go over the queue depth
set during slave_configure or the sysfs file this isn't nessecary
and can safely be removed.

<title>scsi: don't set tagging state from scsi_adjust_queue_depth</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove the tagged argument from scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and just let it
handle the queue depth.  For most drivers those two are fairly separate,
given that most modern drivers don't care about the SCSI "tagged" status
of a command at all, and many old drivers allow queuing of multiple
untagged commands in the driver.

Instead we start out with the -&gt;simple_tags flag set before calling
-&gt;slave_configure, which is how all drivers actually looking at
-&gt;simple_tags except for one worke anyway.  The one other case looks
broken, but I've kept the behavior as-is for now.

Except for that we only change -&gt;simple_tags from the -&gt;change_queue_type,
and when rejecting a tag message in a single driver, so keeping this
churn out of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is a clear win.

Now that the usage of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is more obvious we can
also remove all the trivial instances in -&gt;slave_alloc or -&gt;slave_configure
that just set it to the cmd_per_lun default.

Allow a driver to ask for block layer tags by setting .use_blk_tags in the
host template, in which case it will always see a valid value in
request-&gt;tag, similar to the behavior when using blk-mq.  This means even
SCSI "untagged" commands will now have a tag, which is especially useful
when using a host-wide tag map.

According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment:
"1.   This use of RCU_INIT_POINTER() is NULLing out the pointer"
it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a

While the FCoE initiator driver invokes fc_exch_done() from inside
the libfc response handler, FCoE target drivers typically invoke
fc_exch_done() from outside the libfc response handler. The object
fc_exch.arg points at may disappear as soon as fc_exch_done() has
finished. So it's important not to invoke the response handler
function after fc_exch_done() has finished. Modify libfc such that
this guarantee is provided if fc_exch_done() is invoked from
outside a response handler. This patch fixes a sporadic crash in
FCoE target implementations after a command has been aborted.
