Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Here are the target updates for v3.18-rc2 code.  These where
  originally destined for -rc1, but due to the combination of travel
  last week for KVM Forum and my mistake of taking the three week merge
  window literally, the pull request slipped..  Apologies for that.

  Things where reasonably quiet this round.  The highlights include:

   - New userspace backend driver (target_core_user.ko) by Shaohua Li
     and Andy Grover
   - A number of cleanups in target, iscsi-taret and qla_target code
     from Joern Engel
   - Fix an OOPs related to queue full handling with CHECK_CONDITION
     status from Quinn Tran
   - Fix to disable TX completion interrupt coalescing in iser-target,
     that was causing problems on some hardware
   - Fix for PR APTPL metadata handling with demo-mode ACLs

  I'm most excited about the new backend driver that uses UIO + shared
  memory ring to dispatch I/O and control commands into user-space.
  This was probably the most requested feature by users over the last
  couple of years, and opens up a new area of development + porting of
  existing user-space storage applications to LIO.  Thanks to Shaohua +
  Andy for making this happen.

  Also another honorable mention, a new Xen PV SCSI driver was merged
  via the xen/tip.git tree recently, which puts us now at 10 target
  drivers in upstream! Thanks to David Vrabel + Juergen Gross for their
  work to get this code merged"
