This patch updates the scsi_fc_transport.rst documentation by replacing
the outdated << To Be Supplied >> placeholder under the "FC Remote Ports
(rports)" section with a detailed explanation of remote port
functionality in the Fibre Channel (FC) transport class.
The new documentation covers:
- What rports are and their role in FC-based SCSI communication
- Their representation in sysfs (/sys/class/fc_remote_ports/)
- Common sysfs attributes such as (port_id, port_name, node_name, and
port_state).
- Their typical lifecycle (creation and removal)
- Guidance for driver developers on using fc_remote_port_add() and
fc_remote_port_delete()
This change improves the completeness and usefulness of the FC transport
documentation for developers and users interacting with Fibre Channel
drivers in the Linux SCSI subsystem
