From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>
Quite some drivers are using management commands internally, which
typically use the same hardware tag pool (ie they are being allocated
from the same hardware resources) as the 'normal' I/O commands.
These commands are set aside before allocating the block-mq tag bitmap,
so they'll never show up as busy in the tag map.
The block-layer, OTOH, already has 'reserved_tags' to handle precisely
this situation.
So this patch adds a new field 'nr_reserved_cmds' to the SCSI host
template to instruct the block layer to set aside a tag space for these
management commands by using reserved tags.

But this is weird. For SATA, can_queue is 32. Having reserved commands,
that number needs to stay the same. We cannot have more than 32 tags.
I think keeping can_queue as the max queue depth with at most
nr_reserved_cmds tags reserved is better.
I had been thinking about this for quite a while, and figured that the
'reserved' commands model from blk-mq doesn't fit nicely with the SATA
protocol.
So my idea for SATA is simply _not_ to use reserved tags.
Any TMF functions (or the equivalent thereof) should always be sent as
non-NCQ commands. And when doing so we're back to QD=1 on SATA anyway,
so there _must_ be tags available. Consequently the main reason for
having reserved tags (namely to guarantee that tags are available for
TMF) doesn't apply here.
Which is why in my initial patchset I've always been referrring to
'internal' commands, and drivers could select if the 'internal' commands
are mappend on reserved tags or not.
Cheers,
Hannes
