Without the fix bnx2i would fail tt->xmit_task() when link is down and
libiscsi would have already incremented session->cmdsn before calling bnx2i's
xmit_task() entry point and will just return the command to SCSI-ML when
xmit_task() fails. libiscsi does not retract the session->cmdsn as the command
was never sent on wire.  It is generally good idea for LLD, bnx2i to accept
the scsi cmnd/nopout and let upper layer timeout and go though normal session
recovery process.  When link is down, unsolicited nopout will not be accepted
by bnx2i and connection will never enter recovery state. This fix is required
for MPIO to work corectly

When using iface, bnx2i was unable to offload further connections after all
active sessions are logged out. bnx2i will unregister the device from cnic
when the last connection is torn down. Next call to ep_connect() will fail
because the device is not registered. This issue is not seen if shost == NULL
is passed to ep_connect() call because in that case bnx2i will registers all
known devices with cnic before doing a route look-up.  When shost != NULL,
bnx2i knows the device on which to offload the connection and has to register
this device before attempting to offload the connection
