Exposing HW queues increases memory footprint as we allocate the static requests per HW queue ctx, regardless of shared hostwide tagset enabled or not.

And this applies when hostwide shared tags is enabled as well. We do this for hisi_sas: the host can queue max 4096 commands over all queues, so we set .can_queue = 4096*, set HW queue depth = 4096, and set .host_tagset = 1. * we need to reserve some commands for internal IO, so this is reduced a little Thanks, John
