Greetings Boaz, Tomo-san and Co,

This series adds initial support for functional bidirectional CDBs into TCM_Core
and the TCM_Loop fabric module. So far this is limited to XDWRITE_READ_10 emulation
following scsi_debug.c, but everything appears to now be functioning as expected.

This first patch adds support for BIDI operations and XDWRITE_READ_10 emulation
into TCM_Core for the individual I/O descriptor setup, memory mapping, callback
and release codepaths.

The second patch enables BIDI operations with the TCM_Loop Virtual SCSI LLD
fabric module using the updated callers.

So far this has been lightly tested on v2.6.36-rc3 HVM using custom userspace BSG
code to issue XDWRITE_READ_10 I/O into TCM_Loop LUNs using FILEIO backstores.
Support for BIDI CDBs will also extend to LIO-Target and other TCM fabric modules
in the near future.

Comments are welcome!
