Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [Target_Core_Mod/Persistent_Reservations]: Allow non WRITE CDBs from unregistered initiators

This patch allows unregistered initiators to issue non WRITE CDBs when a PR_TYPE_WRITE_EXCLUSIVE, PR_TYPE_WRITE_EXCLUSIVE_REGONLY or PR_TYPE_WRITE_EXCLUSIVE_ALLREG reservation is held for a given Logical Unit.

Previously we expected initiators to PROUT REGISTER before allowing a LUN to accept any CDBs beyond the explictly allowed CDBs list (as defined by spc4r17, table 45) when a reservation was held by another initiator port in core_scsi3_pr_seq_non_holder().
