John - Recently we found issue of error hander thread never kicked off and
this patch fix the issue.
Without this patch, scsi error hander will not find correct host_busy
counter.

Take one simple case. There is one IO outstanding and that is getting
timedout.
Now SML wants to wake up EH thread only if, below condition met
"scsi_host_busy(shost) == shost->host_failed"

Without this patch, shared host tag enabled meagaraid_sas driver will find
host_busy = actual outstanding * nr_hw_queues.
Error handler thread will never be kicked-off.

This patch is mandatory for fixing shared host tag feature and require to be
part of stable kernel.

Do you need more data for posting to stable kernel ?
