[SCSI] use sysfs configured timeout for EH Start Unit timeout
Use the sysfs configurable timeout when issuing a START_UNIT command from the scsi error handler. This is needed for devices which take longer than thirty seconds to respond to the start unit. The problem was observed when sending a start unit to a disk array device in an ipr RAID adapter, which results in the adapter firmware sending potentially multiple commands to physical devices as a result of this command, which ended up timing out sometimes. This patch does not change the default value used for this command. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
