Subject: [PATCH] aoe: ensure that AoE minor address is supported

This aoe driver only supports a fixed number of AoE minor ("slot")
addresses per major ("shelf") address.  This check ensures that the
minor address is supported and clarifies the diagnostic message.

I plan to put this patch in the aoe quilt tree for linux-next.
