[SCSI] fcoe: vport symbolic name support

Browse source

Allow a vport specific string to be appended to the port symbolic
name.  The new symbolic name is sent to the name server after it
is set.

This currently messes with libhbalinux, which is looking for
the fcoe "fcoe <ver> over <ethX>" string and expects whatever
comes after the "over" to be a network interface name only.

Adds an EXPORT_SYMBOL to libfc for fc_frame_alloc_fill, which is
needed to allow fcoe to allocate a frame of variable length for
the RSPN request.
