RDMA drivers need segments that aren't larger than a single HCA page
for memory registrations to work properly, so wire up this limitation
in the host.

While we could just call blk_queue_max_segment_size from ->slave_configure,
that would override the global limit based on the DMA device, so let's do
it the traditional way by adding a field to the Scsi_Host structure.

Hello Christoph,

The value zero has another meaning for Scsi_Host.max_segment_size than 
for queue_limits.max_segment_size. Shouldn't that be documented somewhere?

Thanks,

Bart.

Other than adding the patch and rebuilding the kernel and testing regular stuff, which I had to do anyway, that was the extent of testing.
I did not see where it was used to be honest other than adding the structure member.
I wanted to test the simple change because it was in scsi_lib.c which has many dependencies of course.
