IB/srp: Respect target credit limit
The current SRP initiator will send requests even if it has no credits available. The results of sending extra requests are vendor specific, but on some devices, overrunning credits will cost 85% of peak performance -- e.g. 100 MB/s vs 720 MB/s. Other devices may just drop the requests. This patch will tell the SCSI midlayer to queue requests if there are fewer than two credits remaining, and will not issue a task management request if there are no credits remaining. The mid-layer will retry the queued command once an outstanding command completes. The patch also removes the unlikely() in __srp_get_tx_iu(), as it is not at all unlikely to hit this limit under heavy load.
