2009-12-04	[SCSI] libfc: vport link handling and fc_vport state managment	Chris Leech
	NPIV vports are managed in libfc by changing their virtual link state when the parent N_Ports internal state changes. The vport link is only online when the N_Port is in a ready state (logged into the fabric). vport_state is updated as needed in this patch as well, currently the states LINKDOWN, INITIALIZING, ACTIVE, DSIABLED, and NO_FABRIC_SUPP are used. This also changes the fc_host port_state handling to differentiate between LINKDOWN and OFFLINE.

2009-12-04	[SCSI] libfc: add some generic NPIV support routines to libfc	Chris Leech
	Adds a function to create a new VN_Port instances, which share the EM list with the N_Port, VN_Port lookup by fabric ID when responding to a new request (otherwise the exchange lookup from the N_Ports EM list is trusted to return an exchange with a cached lport value for the correct VN_Port), a pointer to a fc_vport structure for VN_Ports, and flags to indicate if an N_Port supports NPIV and if the switch/fabric allows it.
