Let me also check megaraid_sas and see if anything generic or this is
a special case of scsi_debug.
As I mentioned, it could be one generic issue wrt. SCHED_RESTART.
shared tags might have to restart all hctx since all share same tags.
Ming - I tried many combination on MR shared host tag driver but there is
no single instance of IO hang.
I will keep trying, but when I look at scsi_debug driver code I found
below odd settings in scsi_debug driver.
can_queue of adapter is set to 128 but queue_depth of sdev is set to 255.
If I apply below patch, scsi_debug driver's hang is also resolved. Ideally
sdev->queue depth cannot exceed shost->can_queue.
Not sure why cmd_per_lun is 255 in scsi_debug driver which can easily
exceed can_queue. I will simulate something similar in MR driver and see
how it behaves w.r.t IO hang issue.

So SDEBUG_CANQUEUE is 3*64 = 192 and is a hard limit (it is used to
dimension an array). Should it be upped to 4, say? [That will slow things
down a bit if that is an issue.]
