firewire: sbp2: Take into account Unit_Unique_ID
If the target's unit directory contains a Unit_Unique_ID entry, we should use that as the target's GUID for identification purposes. The SBP-2 standards document says: "Although the node unique ID (EUI-64) present in the bus information block is sufficient to uniquely identify nodes attached to Serial Bus, it is insufficient to identify a target when a vendor implements a device with multiple Serial Bus node connections. In this case initiator software requires information by which a particular target may be uniquely identified, regardless of the Serial Bus access path used."
