Hi Joe,

Not sure what you mean here..  Currently drivers/target/ contains the
fabric independent target core, and /drivers/target/$FABRIC/ contains
individual fabric module drivers.

I originally decided to use drivers/target/ to avoid any confusion wrt
to the 'LIO' term, which to some folks is interchangable wrt to the
'iscsi-target' fabric module.
