There is no need for a detect() method - code that is present in such
a method can be moved to module_init(). Hence declare this method
obsolete. Leave the detect pointer member in the target template for
now for out-of-tree SCST drivers.

For some filesystems, e.g. tmpfs, address_space.readpage is NULL.
Disable zero-copy reading for such filesystems. See also shmem_aops
in mm/shmem.c. See also inode_init_always() and empty_aops in fs/inode.c.

Changes in this patch:
- Rework the SCSI pass-through code such that for kernel versions
>= 2.6.30 the scst_exec_req_fifo patch is no longer needed.
- Modify the pass-through code such that blk_rq_append_bio() is only
called for kernel version 2.6.30. For later kernel versions
blk_make_request() is called instead.
- Rework scst_scsi_exec_async().
- Add debug tracing of SCSI pass-through result status.
- Add a lockdep_assert_held() call in scsi_end_async().

Persistent reservation commands need thread context because
scst_pr_is_cmd_allowed() locks the PR mutex. Reservation commands
either need BH or thread context. Hence switch from atomic to
thread context before processing such commands.

vfs_read() and vfs_write() ignore the file offset set by llseek().
Hence remove the llseek() calls that occur just before vfs_read() and
vfs_write(). See also the implementation in the Linux kernel of the
pread64() and pwrite64() system calls for examples of code that uses
vfs_read() and vfs_write().

It is possible for a target driver to pass a scatterlist via
scst_cmd_set_tgt_sg() that is valid for the vdisk_fileio handler
but not for the vdisk_blockio handler. Complain loudly if an invalid
scatterlist is passed to vdisk_blockio because such scatterlists
cause silent data corruption with most Linux block drivers.

For SCST devices with a short name determining which SCST command
threads serve a given LUN requires an (expensive) walk of the
process table. For SCST devices with a long name it is not possible
to determine unambiguously which command threads serve a given
LUN. Hence add a thread_pid sysfs attribute that makes it easy to
figure out which command threads serve a LUN.
