Bart Van Assche a57c9d0cee fcst: Fix a potential deadlock
This patch fixes the following lockdep warning:

======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.13.0-rc6-debug+ #5 Tainted: G        W  O
-------------------------------------------------------
rmmod/8653 is trying to acquire lock:
 (scst_tgt_kref){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa033de6f>] scst_tgt_sysfs_put+0x10f/0x190 [scst]

but task is already holding lock:
 (ft_lport_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa029d3db>] ft_lport_del+0x1b/0x40 [fcst]

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

This is the SCST development repository. It contains not a single
project SCST as one can think, but a number of them, which are divided
as the following:

1. SCST core in scst/ subdirectory

2. Administration utility for SCST core scstadmin in scstadmin/

3. Target drivers in own subdirectories qla2x00t/, iscsi-scst/, etc.

4. User space programs in usr/ subdirectory, like fileio_tgt.

5. Some various docs in doc/ subdirectory.

Those subprojects are in most cases independent from each other,
although some of them depend from the SCST core. They put in the single
repository only to simplify their development, they are released
independently.

Thus, use "make all" only if you really need to build everything.
Otherwise build only what you need, like for iSCSI-SCST:

make scst scst_install iscsi iscsi_install

For more information about each subproject see their README files.
