[SCSI] libfc: reduce hold time on SCSI host lock
Introduce a new lock to protect the list of fc_fcp_pkt structs in libfc instead of using the host lock. This reduces the contention of this heavily used lock, and I see up to a 25% performance gain in CPU bound small I/O tests when scaling out across multiple quad-core CPUs. The big win is in removing the host lock from the completion path completely, as it does not need to be held around the call to scsi_done.
