Disallow the SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE to SDEV_CANCEL transition such that no I/O is sent to devices for which the transport is offline. Notes: - Functions like sd_shutdown() use scsi_execute_req() and hence set the REQ_PREEMPT flag. Such requests are passed to the LLD queuecommand callback in the SDEV_CANCEL state. - This patch does not affect Fibre Channel LLD drivers since these drivers invoke fc_remote_port_chkready() before submitting a SCSI request to the HBA. That prevents a timeout to occur in state SDEV_CANCEL if the transport is offline.
