[PATCH] Fixing signness of parameters in scsi module

[Masatake YAMATO]

Hi,

In scsi module I've found some inconsistency between variable type
used in module_param_named and type passed to module_param_named as an
argument. Especially the inconsistency of `max_scsi_luns' parameter is
a bit serious because the description text says "last scsi LUN (should
be between 1 and 2^32-1)". 


I'm not on the mailing list. so please put my address
to cc: of your reply.
