Improve the usability of the unit_add sysfs attribute by ensuring that
the associated FCP LUN scan processing is completed synchronously.
This enables configuration tooling to consistently determine the end of
the scan process to allow for serialization of follow-on actions.

While the scan process associated with unit_add typically completes
synchronously, it is deferred to an asynchronous background process if
unit_add is used before initial remote port scanning has completed.
This occurs when unit_add is used immediately after setting the
associated FCP device online.

To ensure synchronous unit_add processing, wait for remote port scanning
to complete before initiating the FCP LUN scan.

Note: Adding Cc: stable since this commit addresses a usability bug
      of the unit_add sysfs attribute.
