Now scsi_mq_setup_tags() pre-allocates a big buffer for IO sg list,
and the buffer size is scsi_mq_sgl_size() which depends on smaller
value between shost->sg_tablesize and SG_CHUNK_SIZE.
Modern HBA's DMA capabilty is often capable of deadling with very
big segment number, so scsi_mq_sgl_size() is often big. Suppose the
max sg number of SG_CHUNK_SIZE is taken, scsi_mq_sgl_size() will be
4KB.
Then if one HBA has lots of queues, and each hw queue's depth is
big, the whole pre-allocation for sg list can consume huge memory.
For example of lpfc, nr_hw_queues can be 70, each queue's depth
can be 3781, so the pre-allocation for data sg list can be 70*3781*2k
=517MB for single HBA.
Also there is Red Hat internal reprot that scsi_debug based tests can't
be run any more since legacy io path is killed because too big
pre-allocation.
This patch switchs to runtime allocation for sg list, meantime
pre-allocate 2 inline sg entries. This way has been applied to
NVMe for a while, so it should be fine for SCSI too.
