block/scsi: Provide a limit on the number of integrity segments
Some controllers have a hardware limit on the number of protection
information scatter-gather list segments they can handle.
Introduce a max_integrity_segments limit in the block layer and provide
a new scsi_host_template setting that allows HBA drivers to provide a
value suitable for the hardware.
Add support for honoring the integrity segment limit when merging both
bios and requests.
