Certain storage configurations, e.g. a sufficiently large array of
hard disks in a RAID configuration, need a queue depth above 64 to
achieve optimal performance. Hence make the queue depth configurable.

On an initiator system with multiple IB ports it is not yet possible
to figure out what the originating port of an SRP connection is. Hence
make the source GID available in sysfs.

Allow the InfiniBand RC retry count to be configured by the user as an
option in the target login string. Reducing this retry count allows to
reduce the path failover time.

Several InfiniBand HCAs allow configuring the completion vector per
CQ. This allows spreading the workload created by IB completion
interrupts over multiple MSI-X vectors and hence over multiple CPU
cores. In other words, configuring the completion vector properly not
only allows reducing latency on an initiator connected to multiple
SRP targets but also allows improving throughput.
