Standard SCSI device has host_reset sysfs interface.
This patch exports the host_reset interface for upper layer.

Hello Gioh,
A patch description should not only explain what is changed but also
why a change is considered useful. Why do you think it would be useful
to allow users to trigger a call of srp_reconnect_rport() through
sysfs instead of using the functionality that is already available
through sysfs, namely removing a SCSI host and reconnecting?
Hello Bart,
It's my mistake to miss 0000-cover-letter.patch file including description.
I'm testing SCSI devices which are exported by the remote servers via IB
network. I know that SCSI error handling mechanism calls reset-host when
something wrong happens. But the SCSI error handling tries sending ABORT
commands and other actions before resetting host. I found that those
ABORT commands could generate more stress on the remove server. So I
need to reset SCSI host (which mean reconnecting) when the remote server
starts to become slow or have some problem to handle IO.
And I think I can use some utilities for SCSI device, such like sg3
utils, to handle srp connection.
Thank you for your reply.
Best regards,
Gioh Kim
Bart.
