Two loosely related patches are included:

- Fix for scsi_realloc_sdev_budget_map(). I noticed that the budget token
  for scsi commands was way in excess of the device queue depth, so I
  think we need to fix the sbitmap depth. I need to test this more.

- libata change to use scsi command budget token for qc tag for SAS host.
  I marked this as RFC as for SAS hosts I don't see anything which
  guarantees that the budget size is <= 32 always.
  For libsas hosts we resize the device depth to 32 in the slave configure
  callback, but this seems an unreliable approach since not all hosts may
  call this.
  In addition, I am worried that even if we resize the device depth
  properly in the slave config callback, we may still try to alloc qc tag
  prior to this - in lun scan, for example.
  So we need a way to guarantee that the device queue depth is <= 32
  always, which I would be open to suggestions for.

I tested this and it is working fine for me. This actually solves the QD
not changing problem I had detected with the pm80xx driver.
Now, doing this:

# cat /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
32
# echo 16 > /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
# cat /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
16

is working as expected.

See my comments on patch 2 for getting final ack and tested tags :)

Having this working is down to the first patch. So I will resend that 
patch today separately so that we may look to have it included in 5.18, 
even though we're so late in the cycle...

OK, Thanks,
