Subject: [PATCH][RFC 10/23]: SCST user space backend handler

This patch contains user space backend dev handler. It allows to 
implement in the user space virtual SCSI devices in the SCST 
environment. See description of its interface here: 
http://scst.sourceforge.net/scst_user_spec.txt

An example of an application that uses this interface is fileio_tgt. You 
can download this software from 
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=110471&package_id=283232. 
This application is a full feature virtual disk emulator similar to 
scst_vdisk backend dev handler.
