I think that Vlad has already explained several times why ConfigFS is not suited for the needs of a storage target: a storage target must not only be able to accept configuration information from userspace but must also be able to create new directories and file nodes itself. See e.g. this message from October 6: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2010/10/6/4628664.
