As far I can tell, the qla2xxx driver or/and the HBA firmware do not
support the target mode anymore. I was not able to get this working
either and IIRC Hannes said something similar.

A colleague also tried to get a with a QLogic HBA working and failed.
Though he was able to get the target mode running with a Emulex HBA
(lpfc driver).
