blk-mq: scale depth and rq map appropriate if low on memory
If we are running in a kdump environment, resources are scarce. For some SCSI setups with a huge set of shared tags, we run out of memory allocating what the drivers is asking for. So implement a scale back logic to reduce the tag depth for those cases, allowing the driver to successfully load. We should extend this to detect low memory situations, and implement a sane fallback for those (1 queue, 64 tags, or something like that).
