The following patches modify the fcoe module, primarily to prepare for
supporting NPIV and more than one libfc lport instance per network interface.
The last few patches also add a mutex around create and destroy,
which is now also held while lports are destroyed from the module exit
function. Also there are checks added to create and destroy to ensure that
the fcoe module has been initialized and is not about to be removed, as the
module parameter sysfs files are still writable while the exit function is
being run.
