Disallow the SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE to SDEV_CANCEL transition such
that no I/O is sent to devices for which the transport is offline.
Notes:
- Functions like sd_shutdown() use scsi_execute_req() and hence
  set the REQ_PREEMPT flag. Such requests are passed to the LLD
  queuecommand callback in the SDEV_CANCEL state.
- This patch does not affect Fibre Channel LLD drivers since these
  drivers invoke fc_remote_port_chkready() before submitting a SCSI
  request to the HBA. That prevents a timeout to occur in state
  SDEV_CANCEL if the transport is offline.
