In general ACK series - although I did make comments to specific patches
- some for simple typos/nits and a couple for minor adjustments which
should be addressable without the need for a v2 (patch 5, 8, 9, 11, & 12).

Nice to know about virstoragetest.c - I can see the need to add perhaps
some iscsi options there (learned something new today)
