firewire: fw-sbp2: Use sbp2 device-provided mgt orb timeout for logins
To be more compliant with section 7.4.8 of the SBP-2 specification,
use the mgt_ORB_timeout specified in the SBP-2 device's config rom
for login ORB attempts (though with some sanity checks). A happy
side-effect is that certain device and controller combinations that
sometimes take more than 20 seconds to get synced up (like my laptop
with just about any SBP-2 device) now function more reliably.

firewire: fw-sbp2: increase login orb reply timeout, fix "failed to login"
Increase (and rename) the login orb reply timeout value to 20s
to match that of the old firewire stack. 2s simply didn't give
many devices enough time to spin up and reply.
Fixes inability to recognize some devices.
Failure mode was "orb reply timed out"/"failed to login".

firewire: fw-core: react on bus resets while the config ROM is being fetched
read_rom() obtained a fresh new fw_device.generation for each read
transaction. Hence it was able to continue reading in the middle of the
ROM even if a bus reset happened. However the device may have modified
the ROM during the reset. We would end up with a corrupt fetched ROM
image then.
Although all of this is quite unlikely, it is not impossible.
Therefore we now restart reading the ROM if the bus generation changed.
Note, the memory barrier in read_rom() is still necessary according to
tests by Jarod Wilson, despite of the ->generation access being moved up
in the call chain.

firewire: fw-sbp2: use device generation, not card generation
There was a small window where a login or reconnect job could use an
already updated card generation with an outdated node ID. We have to
use the fw_device.generation here, not the fw_card.generation, because
the generation must never be newer than the node ID when we emit a
transaction. This cannot be guaranteed with fw_card.generation.
Furthermore, the target's and initiator's node IDs can be obtained from
fw_device and fw_card. Dereferencing their underlying topology objects
is not necessary.

firewire: fw-sbp2: try to increase reconnect_hold (speed up reconnection)
Ask the target to grant 4 seconds instead of the standard and minimum of
1 second window after bus reset for reconnection. This accelerates
reconnection if there are more than one targets on the bus: If a login
and inquiry to one target blocks the fw-sbp2 workqueue for more than 1s
after bus reset, we now still can reconnect to the other target.
Before that, fw-sbp2's reconnect attempts would be rejected with "error
status: 0:9" (function rejected), and fw-sbp2 would finally re-login.
All those futile reconnect attemps cost extra time until the target
which needs re-login is ready for I/O again.
The reconnect timeout field in the login ORB doesn't have to be honored
by the target though. I found that we could get up to
- allegedly 32768s from an old OXFW911 firmware
- 256s from LSI bridges
- 4s from OXUF922 and OXFW912 bridges,
- 2s from TI bridges,
- only the standard 1s from Initio and Prolific bridges and from
Apple OpenFirmware in target mode.
We just try to get 4 seconds which already covers the case of a few
HDDs on the same bus quite nicely.
A minor drawback occurs in the following (rare and impractical) border
case:
- two initiators are there, initiator 1 holds an exclusive login to
a target,
- initiator 1 goes off the bus,
- target refuses login attempts from initiator 2 until reconnect_hold
seconds after bus reset.
An alternative approach to the issue at hand would be to parallelize
fw-sbp2's reconnect and login work.

firewire: fw-sbp2: skip unnecessary logout
Don't attempt to send a logout ORB if the target was already unplugged
or had its link switched off. If two targets are attached, this
enhances the chance to quickly reconnect to the remaining target when
one target is plugged out.
