The patch is not specific to the NVME disconnect feature, but rather focuses on adding infrastructure to the qla2xxx driver to pass-up 
unsolicited received FC-NVMe Link Service (LS) request to the transport via nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req(). And to complete the LS response via xmt_ls_rsp()
to the firmware using FC-NVMe Link Service Pass-Through IOCB.

The current commit message is misleading, as the code does not entail any changes specific to NVMe disconnect. Would it be acceptable to 
resubmit this patch with a new commit message stating, "Adding support for unsolicited LS request and response".

Thanks,
Manish
