ARGUMENTS

struct device * parent
parent of the target (need not be a scsi host)

int channel

uint id

DESCRIPTION

Return an existing target if one exists, provided it hasn't already gone into STARGET_DEL state, otherwise allocate a new target.

The target is returned with an incremented reference, so the caller is responsible for both reaping and doing a last put
