Drivers might have to perform complex actions to determine queue limits,
and those might fail.  Add a helper to cancel a queue limit update
that can be called in those cases.

At least in scsi_add_lun() there are multiple statements between
queue_limits_start_update(), queue_limits_cancel_update() and
queue_limits_commit_update(). Has it been considered to use __cleanup()
to invoke queue_limits_commit_update() when the end of the current scope
is reached? I think that would make code that uses the
queue_limits_*_update() functions easier to verify. For an example of
how to use the __cleanup() macro, see e.g. the __free() and
no_free_ptr() macros in <linux/cleanup.h>.

Thanks,

Bart.
