The reason I didn't do that initially was that I could not convince myself
that all command submission paths would enforce the shost->max_lun limit.
But I'll take your word for it.

I don't think the host template is the right place for this (there are
about ten of these that would need to be changed anyway) because
scsi_host_alloc() assigns shost->max_lun = 8. So I'll add the
instance->max_lun = 7 assignment to NCR5380_init().
