Ming and Yanhui report higher CPU usage and lower throughput in scenarios
where the fixed total driver tag depth is appreciably lower than the total

No difference any more wrt. fio running on scsi_debug with this patch in
Yanhui's test machine:
modprobe scsi_debug host_max_queue=128 submit_queues=32 virtual_gb=256 delay=1
vs.
modprobe scsi_debug max_queue=128 submit_queues=1 virtual_gb=256 delay=1
Without this patch, the latter's result is 30% higher than the former's.
ok, good. I'll post a v2 with comments addressed.
note: scsi_debug's queue depth needs to be updated to 128 for avoiding io hang,
which is another scsi issue.
I was just carrying Doug's patch to test.
Thanks,
John
