Wrt. .cmd_per_lun, I think it is safe to modify it into one correct depth because almost all drivers are just producer of .cmd_per_lun. And except for debug purpose, there are only three consumers of .cmd_per_lun in scsi, and all are for scsi_change_queue_depth():
process_message() scsi_alloc_sdev() virtscsi_change_queue_depth()
Thanks, Ming
