Subject: [PATCH 3/5] libiscsi: replace kfifo_init with kfifo_alloc

kfifo_init will use a pre-allocated buffer as fifo buffer; the buffer
size is determinted at caller side. While, kfifo will maintain a real
kfifo buffer size(rounddown power of 2 aligned). So, the two size may
not be equal.

So, if max is not power of 2, this code will not work. As it assume the
kfifo is able to hold max elments, but it is able to hold less than max
only.

To be safe, we should use kfifo_alloc instead, though it will not
address this issue. But a later patch to refactor kfifo_alloc to be a
log API will fix it.

Besides that, I refactored the code a bit with the style used in
libsrp.c: allocated items once by kcalloc.
