[SCSI] aacraid: adjustable timeouts
Received From Mark Salyzyn
Add the ability to adjust for unusual corner case failures. Both of
these additional module parameters deal with embedded, non-intel or
complicated system scenarios.
Aif_timeout can be increased past the default 2 minute timeout to drop
application registrations when a system has an unusually high event load
resulting from continuing management requests, or simultaneous builds,
or sluggish user space as a result of system load.
Startup_timeout can be increased past the default 3 minute timeout to
drop an adapter initialization for systems that have a very large number
of targets, or slow to spin-up targets, or a complicated set of array
configurations that extend the time for the firmware to declare that it
is operational. This timeout would only have an affect on non-intel
based systems, as the (more patient) BIOS would generally be where the
startup delay would be dealt with.
