The pass branch works fine using '-E sg -Y pt' for SG_IO backstore <->
fabric LUN assocation with TCM_Loop LLD Target Ports. Thanks for
cleaning things up to use TYPE_PT btw, I should have asked about that
earlier. ;)

Ok, I just fixed some minor breakage and applied patch 3 on top of
tgt.git/pass in my local tree and everything appears to work with
'-E bsg -Y pt'.

Please let me know if you have any other comments on the BSG bits or if
you would like me to send along a updated patch 3 seperately.

Thanks Tomo!
