This patch just has qla4xxx implement the basic set param attrs like
connection address and port, target portal group tag, and target name.
Like send targets, it does not support ipv6 because I am not sure what
bits to be testing and setting. I guess that can be done later in a fix
up patch. I also do not have ipv6 setup so I would not know if it works
anyways.

One weird issue is that open-iscsi exposes the address we are currently
logged into. And we expose, what we call the persistent address and
port. These values are the initial values we use for login and in case
of a redirect the persistent and current values would be different.

I do not see how to get the different values for qla4xxx. And what is
the dev_db_entry->targetAddr? The dev_db_entry->ipAddr looks like the
address of the portal we are logged into, and dev_db_entry->targetAddr
was always zero.

To my knowledge ISP4010/ISP4022 does not support IPV6.

Will let you know if there is a way to get it. I think there is,
but need to check.

The value stored in this field is the Target Address recieved from the target
by the ISP4XXX during login.

Thats true.

I guess its always zero, since the info is not populated from the fw ddb entry.
