Looks good to me... but now that I think about it, why is MAX_SCF set
to 1024 in the first place?  Certainly it can't be bigger than the
maximum number of sources in a single operation which is 8 to 16.
Even md raid can only support up to 256 devices in an array.  So I
think that contstant is bogus.

If we set it to 16 we may not even need the percpu change.

Dave?
