From: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx> SCSI Device Handlers return SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY if we could retry activation immediately and SCSI_DH_RETRY in cases where it is better to retry after some delay. Currently we immediately retry scsi_dh_activate irrespective of SCSI_DH_IMM_RETRY and SCSI_DH_RETRY. This patch adds a user configurable 'pg_init_delay_msecs' feature which specifies the number of milliseconds to delay before retrying scsi_dh_activate, when it returned SCSI_DH_RETRY. The default for 'pg_init_delay_msecs' is 2000 milliseconds. Maximum configurable delay is 60000 milliseconds.
