When we read in the target port group state we should be

Why would we ever have multiple alua_port_group structures for the
same port that we'd need to iterate here?
That is the whole point :-)
The index into the port_group structure is the tuple
(LUN ID, group ID), where each tuple corresponds to a different/separate
port group state.
So for each LUN ID we will have at least two port_group structures, the
states of which will be returned per call to REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS.
And as the other paths might be unavailable we might not be able to
execute REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS at all. So we need to update it here.
