[PATCH RESEND] scsi: Set sg_tablesize to 1, for LLDDs that set SG_NONE

Oops while testing blk_mq over the new cxlflash driver.

The root cause of the problem was this low level device driver(LLDD),
in this case cxlflash, does not support scatter-gather and hence had
set it's sg_tablesize to SG_NONE (value of 0). In reality the tablesize
is of length 1. This value of SG_NONE does not cause any problems with
the standard block driver stack but causes issues for blk_mq, as shown
above. Since quite a few of the legacy LLDDs are setting sg_tablesize
to SG_NONE, it was preferable to override the LLDD provided value in
scsi_host_alloc().
