RE: [PATCH 06/22] [SCSI] mpt2sas, mpt3sas: Removing uppper boundary restriction for the module parameter max_sgl_entries

[Sreekanth Reddy]

Hi Martin,

As per your suggestion I have modified the Warning message. Please review the change.
 
Change Set:

1. Extended the upper boundary restriction for the module parameter max_sgl_entries.
   Earlier, the max_sgl_entries was capped at the SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS kernel definition.
   With this change, the user would be able to set the max_sgl_entries to
   any value which is greater than SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS and less than the minimum of
   SCSI_MAX_SG_CHAIN_SEGMENTS & hardware limit(Calculated using IOCFacts's MaxChainDepth).

2. Added a print for the message log whenever the user sets the max_sgl_entries to a value
   greater than SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS to warn about the kernel definition overriding.
