I don't think we want this to be a state because you can have a session
with no target or it could be partially deleted and it could be in the
logged in or failed state. If scsi-ml is sending SYNC_CACHEs as part of
the target/device removal operation, and we lose the session then we could
go through recovery and the state will go from failed to logged in, and
your new unbound state will have been overwritten.

I think it might be better to have a new sysfs file, target_state, for
this where you could have values like scanning, bound, unbinding, and
unbound, or just a sysfs file, target_bound, that is bool.

You should add a description of the problem in the commit, because that
link might be gone one day.
