Subject: [PATCH] storage: Fix issue finding LU's when block doesn't exist

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1152382

Fix a problem in the getBlockDevice and processLU where retval initialized

to zero causing some failures to erroneously continue through to the

virStorageBackendSCSINewLun with an attempt to find a path for "/dev/(null)".

This would fail approximately 10 seconds later with debug message:

virStorageBackendSCSINewLun:203 :

     No stable path found for '/dev/(null)' in '/dev/disk/by-path'

The root cause of the issue is for many /sys/bus/scsi/devices/<lun path>

there is no "block*" device found for the vHBA's, where "<lun path>" are

the various paths created for the vHBA, such as "17:0:0:0", "17:0:1:0",

"17:0:2:0", "17:0:3:0", etc.  If the block device isn't found, then the

directory should just be ignored rather than attempting to process it.

The bug was that in getBlockDevice the assumption was "block" would exist

and either getNewStyleBlockDevice or getOldStyleBlockDevice would fill in

@block_device. However, if 'block*' doesn't exist, then the code returned

NULL for block_device *and* a good (zero) retval value.  This caused the

processLU code to attempt the virStorageBackendSCSINewLun which failed

"at some point in time" in the future.

After this change - on test system the refresh-pool didn't have a noticable

pause of about 20 seconds - it completed within a second since no longer

was there an attempt/need to find "/dev/(null)".

Additionally, the virStorageBackendSCSIFindLU's shouldn't be declaring

found unless the processLU actually returns success. This will be

important in the followup patch which relies on whether a LU was found.

(cherry picked from commit 20870417322f7090d32e31cde864a2f916f55181)

Conflicts:

	src/storage/storage_backend_scsi.c

   Downstream doesn't have mkletzan's curly brace check, so there was

   one place in the module where they were removed, but this code adds

   them back in because it's doing a VIR_DEBUG on getBlockDevice failure

   (see upstream e7a1da8aeb945e4d54693dd7a580caf94fec8a11)
