    target: Eliminate usage of struct se_mem

we got
+       task_count = DIV_ROUND_UP(sectors, dev_max_sectors);
and that's sector_t/sector_t.  64bit division on i386 is no-no in
the kernel - it emits __udivdi3 call and it's not there.  Can
sectors really reach 2^32 here?

Hi Al,

Just a heads up that this was caught this before -rc1, and we ended up
adding DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL using do_div() for the 32-bit case here, and
another DIV_ROUND_UP_SECTOR_T macro that target_core_transport.c is now
using to address this for i386.

kernel.h: Add DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL and DIV_ROUND_UP_SECTOR_T macro usage

Thanks,
