There exists an approach that preserves the ABI of both SCST and LIO,
namely:
* Add empty transport_register_wwn() and transport_unregister_wwn()
  functions in the LIO core.
* Add calls to these functions at the appropriate place in the FC
  and SRP target drivers.
* In the SCST implementation of the unified target driver API, route
  calls to transport_register_wwn() and transport_unregister_wwn() to
  scst_register_target() and scst_unregister_target() respectively.
