Change 183909 by ken at ken.spectra.vm-freebsd on 2010/09/17 21:50:13

	Fix a couple of mps problems.
	
	When the driver is completely saturated with commands (1024 in the
	case of the SAS2008 in my test system), I/O stops.  If we tell CAM
	that we have one less command slot than we have actually allocated,
	everything works fine.  We also need a few extra command slots to
	allow for aborts and other task management commands to be sent down.
	
	This needs more investigation to determine the root cause, but for
	now this fixes things in my testing.
	
	mps.c:		Change a printf() to mps_printf().
	
	mps_sas.c:	Subtract 5 command slots when we tell CAM how many
			commands we can handle.
	
			Add some commented-out logic to print the contents
			the CDBs for timed-out commands.  This can help
			in debugging devices that are timing out.  This
			will be uncommented once I bring some CAM changes
			in.
