Currently dev_loss_tmo is capped by SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_MAX_TIMEOUT. This causes problem with multipathing when the 'no_path_retry' setting exceeds the dev_loss_tmo setting, as then the system might run into a deadlock when all paths have been removed temporarily for longer than dev_loss_tmo. The principal reasons for the capping has been that we should not allow a remote port to remain in status 'blocked' indefinitely, so the capping is there to ensure that the port status is being reset eventually. However, the fast_io_fail_tmo will also move the remote port out of the 'blocked' state, so for any HBA driver implementing both the capping should really be on the fast_io_fail_tmo, and not on the dev_loss_tmo. This patch implements just that, ie the fast_io_fail_tmo is capped to SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_TIMEOUT and the capping is removed from dev_loss_tmo when fast_io_fail_tmo is set. This allows us to synchronize the dev_loss_tmo setting to the 'no_path_retry' setting from multipathing thus avoiding the deadlock.
