Subject: [PATCH 5.7 076/477] scsi: vhost: Notify TCM about the maximum sg entries supported per command

From: Sudhakar Panneerselvam <sudhakar.panneerselvam@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 5ae6a6a915033bfee79e76e0c374d4f927909edc ]

vhost-scsi pre-allocates the maximum sg entries per command and if a
command requires more than VHOST_SCSI_PREALLOC_SGLS entries, then that
command is failed by it. This patch lets vhost communicate the max sg limit
when it registers vhost_scsi_ops with TCM. With this change, TCM would
report the max sg entries through "Block Limits" VPD page which will be
typically queried by the SCSI initiator during device discovery. By knowing
this limit, the initiator could ensure the maximum transfer length is less
than or equal to what is reported by vhost-scsi.
