Hi Hannes,

Add a flag 'alloc_host_dev' to the SCSI host template and allocate
a virtual scsi device if the flag is set.
This device has the SCSI id <max_id + 1>:0, so won't clash with any
devices the HBA might allocate. It's also excluded from scanning and
will not show up in sysfs.
Intention is to use this device to send internal commands to the HBA.

Currently many scsi drivers fill some interfaces such as
target_alloc()/slave_alloc() for real disks.
When allocating scsi target and scsi device for host dev, it will also
call those interfaces, and not sure whether it breaks those drivers.
From function sas_target_alloc() (common interface in libsas layer),
it seems break it as there is no sas_rphy for host dev.
Ah. Didn't consider that.
Will be having a look and fixup the patch.
After giving it some more consideration, I don't think that this is the
best way to go.
An update to make sas_target_alloc() work correctly would mean a change
in the SAS topology, as we'd need to create an rphy for the host port,
and have the host device using that as a parent.
But then this rphy doesn't really exist (as it's the SAS host itself),
so we would either need to modify libsas to convert the SAS host into
being able to serve as a port/phy, or add a 'fake' rphy for the SAS
host. And in either case it would be a bigger surgery.
I'd rather prefer to add checks to libsas to figure out if a given SCSI
device is a SAS device or a the SCSI host device; John Garry did some
patches here to libsas.
But anyway, I would first want to concentrate on the API _how_ reserved
tags should be allocated, and once we have that we can work on porting
it to more complex things like libsas.
Cheers,
Hannes
