nvmet-fc: cleanup nvmet add_port/remove_port
The current fc transport add_port routine validates that there is a matching port to the target port config. It then takes a reference on the targetport. The del_port removes the reference. Unfortunately, if the LLDD undergoes a hw reset or driver unload and wants to unreg the targetport, due to the reference, the targetport effectively can't be removed. It requires the admin to remove the port from the nvmet config first, which calls the del_port. Note: it appears nvmetcli clear skips over the del_port call (I'm not attempting to change that). There's no real reason to take the reference. With FC, there is nothing to enable or disable as the presence of the FC targetport implicitly means its enabled, and removal of the targtport means its disabled. Change add_port to simply validate and change remove_port to a noop. No references are taken on the targetport.
