Function sdev_store_queue_depth() enforces that the sdev queue depth cannot
exceed Shost.can_queue.
The sdev initial value comes from shost cmd_per_lun.
However, the LLDD may still set cmd_per_lun > can_queue, which leads to an
initial sdev queue depth greater than can_queue.
Such an issue was reported in [0], which caused a hang. That has since
been fixed in commit fc09acb7de31 ("scsi: scsi_debug: Fix cmd_per_lun,
set to max_queue").
Stop this possibly happening for other drivers by capping
shost.cmd_per_lun at shost.can_queue.
