scsi: target: iblock: Add backend plug/unplug callouts
This patch adds plug/unplug callouts for iblock. For an initiator driver
like iSCSI which wants to pass multiple cmds to its xmit thread instead of
one cmd at a time, this increases IOPS by around 10% with vhost-scsi
(combined with the last patches we can see a total 40-50% increase). For
driver combos like tcm_loop and faster drivers like the iSER initiator, we
can still see IOPS increase by 20-30% when tcm_loop's nr_hw_queues setting
is also increased.
