following 2 conditions needs to be satisfied to offload an iscsi
connection,
  1) device has to be registered with cnic
  2) device has to support iscsi offload

  bnx2i_adapter_ready() will return success only if both conditions
(which is flagged by ADAPTER_STATE_UP bit in hba->adapter_state) are
met. bnx2i_ep_connect() will bailout if bnx2i_adapter_ready() does not
return correct status and this guarantees bnx2i will not make any cnic
calls on an unregistered device.
