8359cf43b9 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.

c4795fb20e 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.

So that they have access to EXPORT_SYMBOL variants and THIS_MODULE.

e48354ce07 iscsi-target: Add iSCSI fabric support for target v4.1
The Linux-iSCSI.org target module is a full featured in-kernel
software implementation of iSCSI target mode (RFC-3720) for the
current WIP mainline target v4.1 infrastructure code for the v3.1
kernel.  More information can be found here:

http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/ISCSI

This includes support for:

   * RFC-3720 defined request / response state machines and support for
     all defined iSCSI operation codes from Section 10.2.1.2 using libiscsi
     include/scsi/iscsi_proto.h PDU definitions
   * Target v4.1 compatible control plane using the generic layout in
     target_core_fabric_configfs.c and fabric dependent attributes
     within /sys/kernel/config/target/iscsi/ subdirectories.
   * Target v4.1 compatible iSCSI statistics based on RFC-4544 (iSCSI MIBS)
   * Support for IPv6 and IPv4 network portals in M:N mapping to TPGs
   * iSCSI Error Recovery Hierarchy support
   * Per iSCSI connection RX/TX thread pair scheduling affinity
   * crc32c + crc32c_intel SSEv4 instruction offload support using libcrypto
   * CHAP Authentication support using libcrypto
   * Conversion to use internal SGl allocation with iscsit_alloc_buffs() ->
     transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd()
