[PATCH] tcm_vhost: Use llist for cmd completion list

This drops the cmd completion list spin lock and makes the cmd
completion queue lock-less.

Apologies for the long delay to get back to this patch.

After some initial testing, I'm seeing about about a ~5K IOPs
performance increase to single RAMDISK_MCP (~110K to ~115K) on the heavy
mixed 75/25 4k randrw fio workload.

That said, I think it's fine to as a for-3.9 item.

Acked-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab at linux-iscsi.org>

MST, do you want to take this via your vhost tree, or shall I merge via
target-pending/for-next..?

Thanks,
