c9747821f9 snic: Fix for missing interrupts
- On posting an IO to the firmware, adapter generates an interrupt.
  Due to hardware issues, sometimes the adapter fails to generate
  the interrupt. This behavior skips updating transmit queue-
  counters, which in turn causes the queue full condition. The fix
  addresses the queue full condition.

- The fix also reserves a slot in transmit queue for hba reset.
  when queue full is observed during IO, there will always be room
  to post hba reset command.

c8806b6c9e snic: driver for Cisco SCSI HBA
Cisco has developed a new PCI HBA interface called sNIC, which stands for
SCSI NIC. This is a new storage feature supported on specialized network
adapter. The new PCI function provides a uniform host interface and abstracts
backend storage.
