Our max_requests is the total number commands allowed across all queues. From
what I understand is can_queue is the total number of commands in flight allowed
for each hw queue.

/*
* In scsi-mq mode, the number of hardware queues supported by the LLD.
*
* Note: it is assumed that each hardware queue has a queue depth of
* can_queue. In other words, the total queue depth per host
* is nr_hw_queues * can_queue. However, for when host_tagset is set,
* the total queue depth is can_queue.
*/

We currently don't use the host wide shared tagset.
