I think that Vlad has already explained several times why ConfigFS is
not suited for the needs of a storage target: a storage target must
not only be able to accept configuration information from userspace
but must also be able to create new directories and file nodes itself.
See e.g. this message from October 6:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2010/10/6/4628664.
