[SCSI] target: Remove unnecessary hba_dev_list walk and se_clear_dev_ports legacy code

This patch removes a legacy struct se_hba->hba_dev_list -> se_release_device_for_hba()
list walk in core_delete_hba(), which is no longer required while using configfs
VFS level parent/child struct config_group dependency referencing.  The reason
is because any struct se_hba->hba_dev_list-> struct se_device members are going
to have to be released via:

	rmdir /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA/*

before rmdir release of struct se_hba via target_core_configfs.c:
target_core_call_delhbafromtarget() -> core_delete_hba()

	rmdir /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA

to release struct se_hba in core_delete_hba().

This patch also removes the legacy se_clear_dev_ports() function, which is
left-over pre-configfs shutdown logic for when se_free_virtual_device()
was responsible for walking struct se_device->dev_sep_list and calling
core_dev_del_lun() for each individual active struct se_port->se_lun.

The reason this can be removed is because all struct se_device->dev_sep_list
-> struct se_port communication is done via configfs symlinks, which
means that an target fabric module's endpoints containg active struct
se_port(s) will have to be released via target_core_fabric_configfs.c:
target_fabric_port_unlink() via:

	unlink /sys/kernel/config/target/$FABRIC_MOD/$ENDPOINT/tpgt_$TPGT/lun/lun_$LUN_ID/<symlink>

before rmdir release of struct se_device in target_core_configfs.c:
target_core_drop_subdev() -> se_free_virtual_device() can happen via:

	rmdir /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA/*

to release struct se_subsystem_dev in target_core_drop_subdev()
