[PATCH 0/7] Limit overall SCSI EH runtime

[Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>]

This patchset implements a new 'eh_deadline' attribute to the
SCSI host. It will limit the overall SCSI EH runtime by a given
timeout. If the timeout expires all intermediate steps will
be skipped and host reset will be scheduled immediately.

For this patch I've re-used the existing 'last_reset' field
of the SCSI host to store the initial time SCSI EH started.
Also the field 'resetting' has been removed as it never has
been used as intended.

As 'last_reset' might be in use by transport-specific EH
implementation I've disallowed eh_deadline setting there.

Patchset is incremental to my earlier patchset
'scsi: improved eh timeout handler'.

As usual, comments etc are welcome.

  dpt_i2o: Remove DPTI_STATE_IOCTL
  dpt_i2o: return SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY when in reset
  advansys: Remove 'last_reset' references
  tmscsim: Move 'last_reset' into host structure
  dc395: Move 'last_reset' into internal host structure
  scsi: remove check for 'resetting'
  scsi: Add 'eh_deadline' to limit SCSI EH runtime
