scsi: scsi_transport_fc: Add dummy initiator role to rport
This patch allows scsi drivers that expose virturalized fibre channel devices but that do not expose rports to successfully rescan the scsi bus via echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/scan. Drivers can create a pseudo rport and indicate FC_PORT_ROLE_FCP_DUMMY_INITIATOR as the rport's role in fc_rport_identifiers. This insures that a valid scsi_target_id is assigned to the newly created rport and it can meet the requirements of fc_user_scan_tgt calling scsi_scan_target.
