Hmm, I wonder if I/we wrongly assumed that the dma_dev used for the
hw_max_sectors clamping in __scsi_init_queue() is wrong.

So instead of adding a fallback else-clause here or using "sysdev" as
dma_dev like in the current upstream code, maybe we should actually do
a three-way min: the "changed" hw_max_sectors, dma_max_mapping_size of
dma_dev("dev") and dma_max_mapping_size of sysdev...?
