This breaks up target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() into 3 helpers:
- target_init_cmd(): Do the basic general setup and get a refcount to the
session to make sure the caller can execute the cmd.
- target_submit_prep(): Do the mapping, cdb processing and get a ref to
the LUN.
- target_submit(): Pass the cmd to LIO core for execution.
The above functions must be used by drivers that either:
1. Rely on LIO for session shutdown synchronization by calling
target_stop_session().
2. Need to map sgls.
When the next patches are applied then simple drivers that do not need the
extra functionality above can use target_submit_cmd() and not worry about
failures being returned and how to handle them, since many drivers were
getting this wrong and would have hit refcount bugs.
Also, by breaking target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() up into these 3 helper
functions, we can allow the later patches to do the init/prep from
interrupt context and then do the submission from a workqueue.
