[ Upstream commit 26e28deb813eed908cf31a6052870b6493ec0e86 ]

libiscsi calls the check_protection transport handler only if SCSI-Respose
is received. So, the handler is never called if iSCSI task is completed
for some other reason like a timeout or error handling. And this behavior
looks correct. But the iSER does not handle this case properly because it
puts a non-checked signature MR to the free pool. Then the error occurs at
reusing the MR because it is not allowed to invalidate a signature MR
without checking.

This commit adds an extra check to iser_unreg_mem_fastreg(), which is a
part of the task cleanup flow. Now the signature MR is checked there if it
is needed.

<title>IB/iser: Use IB_WR_REG_MR_INTEGRITY for PI handover</title>

<id>b76a439982f8483beb2ffcfe93be50026940030a</id>
<content type='text'>
Using this new API reduces iSER code complexity.
It also reduces the maximum number of work requests per task and the need
of dealing with multiple MRs (and their registrations and invalidations)
per task. It is done by using a single WR and a special MR type
(IB_MR_TYPE_INTEGRITY) for PI operation.

The setup of the tested benchmark:
 - 2 servers with 24 cores (1 initiator and 1 target)
 - 24 target sessions with 1 LUN each
 - ramdisk backstore
 - PI active

Performance results running fio (24 jobs, 128 iodepth) using
write_generate=0 and read_verify=0 (w/w.o patch):

bs      IOPS(read)        IOPS(write)
----    ----------        ----------
512     1236.6K/1164.3K   1357.2K/1332.8K
1k      1196.5K/1163.8K   1348.4K/1262.7K
2k      1016.7K/921950    1003.7K/931230
4k      662728/600545     595423/501513

32k     116869/114896     82331/82244
64k     55205/54931       40264/40021

Using write_generate=1 and read_verify=1 (w/w.o patch):

bs      IOPS(read)        IOPS(write)
----    ----------        ----------
512     1090.1K/1030.9K   1303.9K/1101.4K
1k      1057.7K/904583    1318.4K/988085
2k      965226/638799     1008.6K/692514
4k      555479/410151     542414/414517

64k     35716/35519       39294/37334

We get performance improvement at all block sizes.
The most significant improvement is when writing 4k bs (almost 30% more
iops).

<title>IB/iser: Pass the correct number of entries for dma mapped SGL</title>

ib_dma_map_sg() augments the SGL into a 'dma mapped SGL'. This process may
change the number of entries and the lengths of each entry.

Code that touches dma_address is iterating over the 'dma mapped SGL' and
must use dma_nents which returned from ib_dma_map_sg().

ib_sg_to_pages() and ib_map_mr_sg() are using dma_address so they must use
dma_nents.
