[PATCH 4/5 v6] IB/srp: Reduce number of BUSY conditions

[PATCH 4/5 v6] IB/srp: Reduce number of BUSY conditions

[Bart Van Assche]

As proposed by the SRP (draft) standard, ib_srp reserves one ring element for
SRP_TSK_MGMT requests. This patch makes sure that the SCSI mid-layer never
tries to queue more than (SRP request limit) - 1 SCSI commands to ib_srp. This
improves performance for targets whose request limit is less than or equal to
SRP_NORMAL_REQ_SQ_SIZE (62) by reducing the number of BUSY responses reported
by ib_srp to the SCSI mid-layer.
