FCE support enables the firmware to record FC extended link
services and basic link services frames which have been
transmitted and received by the ISP. This allows for a limited
view of the FC traffic through the ISP without using a FC
analyzer. This can be useful in situations where a physical
connection to the FC bus is not possible.
The driver exports this information in two ways -- first, via a
debugfs node exported for all supported ISPs under:
<debugfs_mount_point>/qla2xxx/qla2xxx_<host_no>/fce
where a read of the 'fce' file will provide a snapshot of the
firmware's FCE buffer; and finally, the FCE buffer will be
extracted during a firmware-dump scenario.

Following patch adds support for NPIV (N-Port ID Virtualization) to the
qla2xxx.
- supported within switched-fabric topologies only.
- supports up to 63 virtual ports on each physical port.

[SCSI] qla2xxx: Disable port-type RSCN handling via driver state-machine.
and given:
- the process-context requirements of the FC transport
rport-APIs.
- lack of port-type RSCN processing logic for ISP24xx and newer
chips.
it's time now to remove the state-machine logic from mainline.

Transition driver to exclusively use the request_firmware()
interfaces to retrieve firmware-blobs from user-space. This
will be the default behaviour going forward until the
embedded firmware-binary images are removed from the
upstream kernel.
Upon request, the driver caches the firmware image until the
driver is unloaded.
NOTE: The option is present to allow the user to continue to
use the firmware-loader modules, but, should be considered
deprecated.

This adds the appropriate FW_LOADER pre-requisite and a separate entry
for ISP24xx support.
Thanks to Adrian Bunk and Jesper Juhl for their efforts in fixing this
quirk.

If we haven't configured the qla24xx driver, then the Makefile shouldn't
do it for us.
This also means that we can avoid the unnecessary selection of FC_ATTRS.

Add initial support for FC remote port infrastructure.
o Use fc_remote_port...() registration and block/unlock
functions.
o Consolidate 'attribute' (fc-remote/sysfs) helpers into
new qla_attr.c file.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
