hpsa: do not queue commands internally in driver
By not doing maintaining a list of queued commands, we can eliminate some spin locking in the main i/o path and gain significant improvement in IOPS. Remove the queuing code and the code that calls it; remove now-unused interrupt code; remove DIRECT_LOOKUP_BIT. Now that the passthru commands share the same command pool as the main i/o path, and the total size of the pool is less than or equal to the number of commands that will fit in the hardware fifo, there is no need to check to see if we are exceeding the hardware fifo's depth.
