[SCSI] Set the minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' as 0
The former minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' is 1s, which means the earliest occasion to shorten EH is 1 second later since a command is failed or timed out. But if we want to skip EH steps ASAP, we have to wait until the first EH step is finished. If the duration of the first EH step is long, this waiting time is excruciating. So, it is necessary to accept 0 as the minimum valid value for 'eh_deadline'. According to my test, with Hannes' patchset 'New EH command timeout handler' as well, the minimum IO time is improved from 73s (eh_deadline = 1) to 43s(eh_deadline = 0) when commands are timed out by disabling RSCN and target port.
