target: remove useless casts

A reader should spend an extra moment whenever noticing a cast,
because either something special is going on that deserves extra
attention or, as is all too often the case, the code is wrong.

These casts, afaics, have all been useless. They cast a foo* to a
foo*, cast a void* to the assigned type, cast a foo* to void*, before
assigning it to a void* variable, etc.

In a few cases I also removed an additional &...[0], which is equally
useless.

Lastly I added three FIXMEs where, to the best of my judgement, the
code appears to have a bug. It would be good if someone could check
these.

target: header reshuffle, part2

This reorganized the headers under include/target into:

- target_core_base.h stays as is with all target-wide data stuctures and defines
- target_core_backend.h contains the whole interface to I/O backends
- target_core_fabric.h contains the whole interface to fabric modules

Except for those only the various configfs macro headers stay around.

Create a new headers, drivers/target/target_core_internal.h that is supposed
to hold all target_core-internal prototypes. Move all non-exported includes
from include/target to it, and merge the smaller prototype-only includes
inside drivers/target into it as well. Mark functions that were found to
not be called outside their implementation file static.

target: Follow up core updates from AGrover and HCH (round 4)

This patch contains the squashed version of forth round series cleanups
from Andy and Christoph following the post heavy lifting in the preceeding:
'Eliminate usage of struct se_mem' and 'Make all control CDBs scatter-gather'
changes. This also includes a conversion of target core and the v3.0
mainline fabric modules (loopback and tcm_fc) to use pr_debug and the
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG infrastructure!

These have been squashed into this third and final round for v3.1.

target: Remove ifdeffed code in t_g_process_write
target: Remove direct ramdisk code
target: Rename task_sg_num to task_sg_nents
target: Remove custom debug macros for pr_debug. Use pr_err().
target: Remove custom debug macros in mainline fabrics
target: Set WSNZ=1 in block limits VPD. Abort if WRITE_SAME sectors = 0
target: Remove transport do_se_mem_map callback
target: Further simplify transport_free_pages
target: Redo task allocation return value handling
target: Remove extra parentheses
target: change alloc_task call to take *cdb, not *cmd

[SCSI] target: Minor sparse warning fixes and annotations

This patch addresses the majority of sparse warnings and adds
proper locking annotations. It also fixes the dubious one-bit signed
bitfield, for which the signed one-bit types can be 0 or -1 which can
cause a problem if someone ever checks if (foo->lu_gp_assoc == 1).
The current code is fine because everyone just checks zero vs non-zero.
But Sparse complains about it so lets change it. The warnings look like
this:

[SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:

High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.

Advanced SCSI feature set:

* Persistent Reservations (PRs)
* Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
* Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
* Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
* Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
* Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)

Multiprotocol target plugins

Storage media independence:

* Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
* No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
* Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.

Standards compliance:

* Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
* Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA

Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.
