Subject: [PATCH 4/8] scsi: megaraid_sas - check max_sgl reported by FW for
	setting max_sectors_per_req

1. Setting the max_sectors_per_req based on max SGL supported by the FW. Prior versions calculated  
        this value from controller info's max_sectors_1, max_sectors_2. For certain controllers/FW, 
        this was resulting in a value greater than max SGL supported by the FW. Now we take the min  
        of max sgl from FW and max_sectors calculation.

2. Increased MFI_POLL_TIMEOUT_SECS to 60 seconds from 10. FW may take a max of 60 seconds to  
        respond to the INIT cmd.
