scsi: qla2xxx: Allow PLOGI in target mode
According to FC-LS-3 (Fibre Channel Link Services) 6.3.2.4 "N_Port Login - No Fabric present", if both parties in the point-to-point connection know N_Port_Names of each other, Nx_Port with the highest N_Port_name shall transmit PLOGI. The specification sets no restrictions on the port role that should send PLOGI. However, FCP-4 (Fibre Channel Protocol for SCSI, Fourth Version) 6.2 "Overview of Process Login and Process Logout", instructs that in point-to-point topology, initiator shall send explicit PRLI ELS. The change fixes stuck P2P login, when target WWPN is higher than initiator WWPN.
