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.
