Add additional flags to iscsi_discovery
From Doron: Add additional flag: -t set trasnpot (default is tcp). -f force specific transport -disable the fallback to tcp (default is fallback enabled). force the transport specified by the argument of the -t flag. -m manual startup - will set manual startup (default is automatic startup). -l login - login to the new discovered nodes (defualt is false). Signed-off-by: Doron Shoham <dorons@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Erez Zilber <erezz@voltaire.com> Minor teak to get it merged from Mike Christie.

.SH NAME
iscsi_discovery \- discover iscsi devices
.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B iscsi_discovery <IP> [port]
+.B iscsi_discovery <IP> [-p <port>] [-d] [-t <tcp|iser|qla4xxx> [-f]] [-m] [-l]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Perform send-targets discovery to the specified IP. If a discovery record
-is generated, try to login to the portal using iSER and TCP transports.
+is generated, try to login to the portal using iSER and TCP transports
+(-t flag specifies the requested transport type, TCP is the default).
If login using a certain transport succeeds, mark the portal for automatic
-login, and disconnect.
+login (unless -m flag is used), and disconnect (unless -l flag is used).
For iscsi discovery to work, open-iscsi services must be running. e.g. iscsid
should be up, and the iscsi modules loaded. This is best accomplished by the
init.d startup script.
