mpt2sas: Fix for Driver oops, when loading driver with max_queue_depth command line option to a very small value commit 338b131a upstream. If the specified max_queue_depth setting is less than the expected number of internal commands, then driver will calculate the queue depth size to a negitive number. This negitive number is actually a very large number because variable is unsigned 16bit integer. So, the driver will ask for a very large amount of memory for message frames and resulting into oops as memory allocation routines will not able to handle such a large request. So, in order to limit this kind of oops, The driver need to set the max_queue_depth to a scsi mid layer's can_queue value. Then the overall message frames required for IO is minimum of either (max_queue_depth plus internal commands) or the IOC global credits.
