FIP is the new standard way to discover Fibre-Channel Forwarders (FCFs)
by sending solicitations and listening for advertisements from FCFs.
It also provides for keep-alives and period advertisements so that both
parties know they have connectivity. If the FCF loses connectivity to
the storage fabric, it can send a Link Reset to inform the E_node.
This version is also compatible with pre-FIP implementations, so no
configured selection between FIP mode and non-FIP mode is required.
We wait a couple seconds after sending the initial solicitation
and then send an old-style FLOGI. If we receive any FIP frames,
we use FIP only mode. If the old FLOGI receives a response,
we disable FIP mode. After every reset or link up, this
determination is repeated.

Removes no where used several inline functions prefixed with skb_*
and be16_to_cpu.
Moves fcoe module specific func prototypes to fcoe.c from libfcoe.h,
moved only need for build.
Adds fcoe module header file fcoe.h and then moves fcoe module
specific fcoe_percpu_s and fcoe_softc to fcoe.h from libfcoe.h.
Moves all defines from fcoe.c to fcoe.h since now fcoe module
has its own header file fcoe.h.

Moves only required code from fcoe_sw.c to libfcoe.c towards having
just one source file for fcoe module, this gets rid off default sw
transport code in a separate fcoe_sw.c file.
Very minor renaming along this move, dropped _sw_ or _SW_ use
in names and replaced them by _if_ as a auxiliary interface
functions. Now some of these funcs can be removed or merged with
other func after fcoe transport is gone, but that should be
in another patch to keep this patch simple.
Now the libfcoe.c file name for fcoe module doesn't go along well,
so the libfcoe.c file renaming to fcoe.c as the only single fcoe
module file is done in next patch to keep this patch clean
and small for review.

The fcoe transport code was added for generic FCoE transport
infrastructure to allow additional offload related module loading
on demand, this is not required anymore after recently added
different offload approach by having offload related func ops
in netdev.
This patch removes fcoe transport related code use, calls functions
directly between existing libfcoe.c and fcoe_sw.c for now, for
example fcoe_sw_destroy and fcoe_sw_create calling.
The fcoe_sw.c and libfcoe.c code will be further consolidated in
later patches and then also the default fcoe sw transport code
file fcoe_sw.c will be completely removed.
The fcoe transport code files are completely removed in next
patch to keep this patch simple for reviewing.
[This patch is an update to a previous patch. This update
resolves a build error as well as fixes a defect related to
not calling fc_release_transport().]

Convert fcoe_percpu array to use the per-cpu variables
that the kernel provides. Use the kernel's functions to
access this structure.
The cpu member of the fcoe_percpu_s is no longer needed,
so this patch removes it too.

Currently the skb_queue is initialized every time the associated
CPU goes online. This patch has libfcoe initializing the skb_queue
for all possible CPUs when the module is loaded.
This patch also re-orders some declarations in the fcoe_rcv()
function so the structure declarations are grouped before
the primitive declarations.
Lastly, this patch converts all CPU indicies to use unsigned int
since CPU indicies should not be negative.

When LLD supports direct data placement (ddp) for large receive of an scsi
i/o coming into fc_fcp, we call into libfc_function_template's ddp_setup()
to prepare for a ddp of large receive for this read I/O. When I/O is complete,
we call the corresponding ddp_done() to get the length of data ddped as well
as to let LLD do clean up.
fc_fcp_ddp_setup()/fc_fcp_ddp_done() are added to setup and complete a ddped
read I/O described by the given fc_fcp_pkt. They would call into corresponding
ddp_setup/ddp_done implemented by the fcoe layer. Eventually, fcoe layer calls
into LLD's ddp_setup/ddp_done provided through net_device

This was causing some test apps to exit due to write failure under heavy
load.
This was due to a race around adding and removing tx frame skb in
fcoe_pending_queue, Chris Leech helped me to find that brief unlocking
period when pulling skb from fcoe_pending_queue in various contexts
(fcoe_watchdog and fcoe_xmit) and then adding skb back into fcoe_pending_queue
up on a failed fcoe_start_io could change skb/tx frame order in
fcoe_pending_queue. Thanks Chris.
This patch allows only single context to pull skb from fcoe_pending_queue
at any time to prevent above described ordering issue/race by use of
fcoe_pending_queue_active flag.
This patch simplified fcoe_watchdog with modified fcoe_check_wait_queue by
use of FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH instead previously used several conditionals
to clear and set lp->qfull.
I think FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH with FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH will work better
in re/setting lp->qfull and these could be fine tuned for performance.

unneeded/undesirable cast of void*. There are probably zillions of
instances of this - there always are.
This whole inline function was unnecessary. The FCoE layer knows
that it's data structure is stored in the lport private data, it
can just access it from lport_priv().

This layer is the LLD to the scsi-ml. It allocates the Scsi_Host, utilizes
libfc for Fibre Channel protocol processing and interacts with netdev to
send/receive Ethernet packets.
