But this is weird. For SATA, can_queue is 32. Having reserved commands,
that number needs to stay the same. We cannot have more than 32 tags.
I think keeping can_queue as the max queue depth with at most
nr_reserved_cmds tags reserved is better.

+1 for Damien's request. I also prefer to keep can_queue as the maximum
queue depth, whether or not nr_reserved_cmds has been set.

Thanks,
