REPORT LUNS command is more related to target rather then specific LUN.
This node may be primary for LUNs for some reason unknown to another,
and command forwarded to another node won't be able to report them.
REQUEST SENSE is related to LUN, but in our implementation it reports
only UAs and CAs, that are stored locally rather then on primary node.
Previously, with serseq enabled, next command was unblocked only after
previous completed. With this change, for read operations, next command
is unblocked as soon as last media read completed. This is important
for frontends that actually wait for data move completion (like camtgt),
or when data are moved through the HA link, or especially when both.
chdone(). Previously, the retry could clear the CAM_DEV_QFRZN bit in the
CCB status, leaving the queue frozen.

All requests arriving for processing after OFFLINE flag set are rejected
with BUSY status. Races around OFFLINE flag setting are closed by calling

CTL HA functionality was originally implemented by Copan many years ago,
but large part of the sources was never published. This change includes
clean room implementation of the missing code and fixes for many bugs.
This code supports dual-node HA with ALUA in four modes:
- Active/Unavailable without interlink between nodes;
- Active/Standby with second node handling only basic LUN discovery and
reservation, synchronizing with the first node through the interlink;
- Active/Active with both nodes processing commands and accessing the
backing storage, synchronizing with the first node through the interlink;
- Active/Active with second node working as proxy, transfering all
commands to the first node for execution through the interlink.
Unlike original Copan's implementation, depending on specific hardware,
this code uses simple custom TCP-based protocol for interlink. It has
no authentication, so it should never be enabled on public interfaces.
The code may still need some polishing, but generally it is functional.
