Introduce the helper function srp_wait_for_queuecommand().
Move the definition of scsi_request_fn_active(). This patch
does not change any functionality. A second call to
scsi_wait_for_queuecommand() will be introduced in the next
patch.

Can we take a step back here?

This isn;t something driver should be doing, so we really should take
care of this in the SCSI midlayer.

Especially given that we don't maintain request_fn_active for blk-mq.

Hello Christoph,

How about the following:
* Modify scsi_target_block() and scsi_target_unblock(...,
   SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE) such that these functions wait until
   active queuecommand() calls have finished.

Won't this make scsi_target_unblock a sleeping function? It might
not fit all the contexts scsi_target_unblock is called.
