This patch allows scsi drivers that expose virturalized fibre channel
devices but that do not expose rports to successfully rescan the scsi
bus via echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/scan.
Drivers can create a pseudo rport and indicate
FC_PORT_ROLE_FCP_DUMMY_INITIATOR as the rport's role in
fc_rport_identifiers. This insures that a valid scsi_target_id
is assigned to the newly created rport and it can meet the
requirements of fc_user_scan_tgt calling scsi_scan_target.
