This patch changes the !blk-mq path to the same defaults as the blk-mq
I/O path by always enabling block tagging, and always using host wide
tags. We've had blk-mq available for a few releases so bugs with
this mode should have been ironed out, and this ensures we get better
coverage of over tagging setup over different configs.

Previously, when this module was unloaded via 'rmmod' with at least one
drive attached, the SCSI error handler thread would become stuck in an
infinite recovery loop and lockup the system, necessitating a reboot.
Once the SAS layer is detached, the driver will fail any subsequent
commands since the target devices are removed. However, removing the
SCSI host generates a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE (10) command, which was failed
and left the error handler no method of recovery.
This patch simply removes the SCSI host first so that no more commands
can come down, prior to cleaning up the SAS layer. Note that the stack
is built up with the SCSI host first, and then the SAS layer. Perhaps
it should be reversed for symmetry, so that commands cannot be sent to
the pm80xx driver prior to attaching the SAS layer?
What was really strange about this bug was that it was introduced at
commit cff549e4860f ("[SCSI]: proper state checking and module refcount
handling in scsi_device_get"). This commit appears to tinker with how
the reference counting is performed for SCSI device objects. My theory
is that prior to this commit, the refcount for a device object was
blindly incremented at some point during the teardown process which
coincidentially made the device stick around during the procedure, which
also coincidentially made any commands sent to the driver not fail
(since the device was technically still "there"). After this commit was
applied, my theory is the refcount for the device object is not being
incremented at a specific point anymore, which makes the device go away,
and thus made the pm80xx driver fail any subsequent commands.

If MSI(X) interrupts are disabled via the kernel command line
(pci=nomsi), the pm8001 driver will kernel panic because it does not
detect that MSI interrupts are disabled and will soldier on and attempt to
configure MSI interrupts anyways. This leads to a kernel panic, most
likely because a required data structure is not available down the
line. Using the pci_msi_enabled() function in order to detect if MSI
interrupts are enabled before configuring them resolves this issue and
avoids a kernel panic when the module is loaded. Additionally, the
irq_vector structure must be initialized when legacy interrupts are
being used otherwise legacy interrupts will simply not function and
result in another panic.

The documentation for the 8070 and 8072 SPCv chip explicitly states that
a minimum of 500ms must elapse before issuing commands, otherwise the
SPCv may not process them and the firmware may get into an unrecoverable
state requiring a reboot. While the Linux guys will probably think this
is 'racy', it is called out in the chip documentation and inserting this
delay makes power management function properly.

Previuosly, all PMC Sierra 80xx controllers are assumed to be a
motherboard controller, except if the subsystem vendor ID was equal to
PCI_VENDOR_ID_ADAPTEC. The driver then attempts to load PHY settings
from NVRAM. While this may be correct behavior for most controllers, it
does not work with Adaptec and ATTO controllers since they do not store
PHY settings in NVRAM and choose to use either custom PHY settings or
chip defaults. Loading random values from NVRAM may cause the
controllers to malfunction in this edge case.

The task_collector mode (or "latency_injector", (C) Dan Willians) is an
optional I/O path in libsas that queues up scsi commands instead of
directly sending it to the hardware. It generall increases latencies
to in the optiomal case slightly reduce mmio traffic to the hardware.
Only the obsolete aic94xx driver and the mvsas driver allowed to use
it without recompiling the kernel, and most drivers didn't support it
at all.
Remove the giant blob of code to allow better optimizations for scsi-mq

instead of overloading the change_queue_depth method call the
implementation diretly if the driver opts into it by setting the
track_queue_depth flag in the host template.
Note that a few drivers validated the new queue depth in their
change_queue_depth method, but as we never go over the queue depth
set during slave_configure or the sysfs file this isn't nessecary
and can safely be removed.
