[PATCH 0/2][resend] ibmvscsi: dynamic request_limit and device restart

James,

Resending these patches for inclusion in your tree.

There are two fixes for the ibmvscsi client driver in this set.

- Dynamic request_limit
The request_limit for the driver was not properly reflecting the value on
the server side and could cause can_queue to be set to improper values (-1).
The patch corrects this so that request_limit mirrors the value
on the server and sets can_queue appropriately.

- Device restart
When a drive was removed from the server and then re-added the client
would not be able to use that device.  The device would return a unit
attention and then not ready.  By adding a slave_configure function we
can set the "allow_restart" flag for all disk devices.  Now devices will
resume functioning when they are re-added to the server.
