Patch 1 of 1

This patch initializes the max_target_blocked field of a scsi target structure
so that a queuecommand return value of SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY will actually
result in having the scsi_queue_insert blocking the device queue before requeuing
the command and running the queue.  Otherwise, can and does cause livelock on
single CPU configurations if/when open-iSCSI software initiator's command PDU
window fills.

Hi James,

I see you picked up my patch to fix the q lock not being held:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=123931064705280&w=2

I think you need Ed's patch above too. Without it, target_blocked is always zero, so we never hit the code I fixed up. I tested his patch with my patch, and combined they fix all the issues here.
