[PATCH v2] iscsi: Perform connection failure entirely in kernel space

[PATCH v2] iscsi: Perform connection failure entirely in kernel space

[Gabriel Krisman Bertazi]

From: Bharath Ravi <rbharath@google.com>

Connection failure processing depends on a daemon being present to (at
least) stop the connection and start recovery.  This is a problem on a
multipath scenario, where if the daemon failed for whatever reason, the
SCSI path is never marked as down, multipath won't perform the
failover and IO to the device will be forever waiting for that
connection to come back.

This patch implements an optional feature in the iscsi module, to
perform the connection failure inside the kernel.  This way, the
failover can happen and pending IO can continue even if the daemon is
dead. Once the daemon comes alive again, it can perform recovery
procedures if applicable.

Changes since v1:
  - Remove module parameter.
  - Always do kernel-side stop work.
  - Block recovery timeout handler if system is dying.
  - send a CONN_TERM stop if the system is dying.
