This patch addresses the majority of sparse warnings and adds
proper locking annotations.  It also fixes the dubious one-bit signed
bitfield, for which the signed one-bit types can be 0 or -1 which can
cause a problem if someone ever checks if (foo-&gt;lu_gp_assoc == 1).
The current code is fine because everyone just checks zero vs non-zero.
But Sparse complains about it so lets change it.  The warnings look like
this:

include/target/target_core_base.h:228:26: error: dubious one-bit signed bitfield

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:

High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.

Advanced SCSI feature set:

    * Persistent Reservations (PRs)
    * Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
    * Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
    * Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
    * Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
    * Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)

Multiprotocol target plugins

Storage media independence:

    * Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
    * No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
    * Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.

Standards compliance:

    * Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
    * Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA

Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.

[jejb: fix up for new block bdev exclusive interface. Minor fixes from
 Randy Dunlap and Dan Carpenter.]
