Yes, that's probably a reasonable idea, I'll re-send.

I think it was introduced with commit 64d513ac31b - "scsi: use host wide
tags by default". Since this commit scsi_add_host_with_dma() directly calls
blk_init_tags() instead of scsi_init_shared_tag_map(). The qla1280 driver
has never set up the block tags though, so the bogus value was not a problem.
That at least is my analysis, feel free to correct my assumptions.
