[SCSI] FC transport: Add dev_loss_tmo callbacks, and new fast_io_fail_tmo w/ callback
This patch adds the following functionality to the FC transport:
- dev_loss_tmo LLDD callback :
Called to essentially confirm the deletion of an rport. Thus, it is
called whenever the dev_loss_tmo fires, or when the rport is deleted
due to other circumstances (module unload, etc). It is expected that
the callback will initiate the termination of any outstanding i/o on
the rport.
- fast_io_fail_tmo and LLD callback:
There are some cases where it may take a long while to truly determine
device loss, but the system is in a multipathing configuration that if
the i/o was failed quickly (faster than dev_loss_tmo), it could be
redirected to a different path and completed sooner.
Many thanks to Mike Reed who cleaned up the initial RFC in support
of this post.
