It adds a configfs_depend_item() in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint() to obtain an explicit dependency on se_tpg->tpg_group in order to prevent individual vhost-scsi WWPN endpoints from being released via normal configfs methods while an QEMU ioctl reference still exists. Also, add matching configfs_undepend_item() in vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint() to release the dependency, once QEMU's reference to the individual group at /sys/kernel/config/target/vhost/$WWPN/$TPGT is released.
