Hi folks,

This is an updated -v4 series for adding tag pre-allocation support of
target fabric descriptor memory, utilizing Kent's latest per-cpu ida
bits.

The first patch is a standalone version of per-cpu-ida, seperate from
the full idr rewrite from Kent that is still being discussed. Jens has
also expressed interest in a blk-mq conversion to use these per-cpu-ida
primatives, so getting this piece merged for v3.12 would make life easier
for both of us. ;)

The second patch includes target-core setup of se_sess->sess_cmd_map +
se_sess->sess_tag_pool resources at session creation time, using
fabric independent code in transport_init_session_tags().

The third patch is the initial conversion of vhost-scsi fabric code
to use per-cpu ida logic for obtaining a new tcm_vhost_cmd descriptor
via vhost_scsi_get_tag() during vhost_work_fn_t->handle_kick() ->
vhost_scsi_handle_vq() callback execution.

The forth patch is a vhost-scsi change that adds pre-allocation of
per tcm_vhost_cmd descriptor scatterlist + user-space page pointer
memory, that allows the last two fast-path allocations to be dropped
from tcm_vhost_submission_work() -> vhost_scsi_map_to_sgl() fast-path
execution.

The fifth patch converts iscsi/iser-target to use allocations based on
iscsit_transport->priv_size within iscsit_allocate_cmd(), instead of
using an embedded isert_cmd->iscsi_cmd. This makes the conversion to
percpu-ida pre-allocation easier.

And the sixth patch enables iscsi-target to use pre-allocation logic for
per-cpu session tag pooling with internal ida_alloc() + ida_free() calls
based upon the saved iscsi_cmd->se_cmd.map_tag id.

v4 changes:

- Fix tags.c reference in percpu_ida_init (akpm)
- Add transport_alloc_session_tags() for fabrics that need early
transport_init_session()
- Fix bug with SessionType=Discovery in iscsi_target_locate_portal()

Please review as v3.12 material.

Thank you,

--nab
