Right, though I would like to tackle one problem after the other, first get fc
working with the 'correct' order.

I was woried about this setup sequence here:

	modprobe -q nvme-"${nvme_trtype}"
	if [[ "${nvme_trtype}" == "rdma" ]]; then
		start_soft_rdma

The module is loaded before start_soft_rdma is started, thus I thought we should
do the reverse, first call stop_soft_rdma and the unload the module.
