[SCSI] limit recursion when flushing shost->starved_list

Browse Source 
Attached is a patch that should limit a possible recursion that can
lead to a stack overflow like follows:

Kernel stack overflow.

<0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Corrupt kernel stack, can't continue.

This stack overflow occurred during tests on s390 using zfcp.
Recursion depth for this panic was 19.

Usually recursion between blk_run_queue and a request_fn is avoided
using QUEUE_FLAG_REENTER. But this does not help if the scsi stack
tries to flush the starved_list of a scsi_host.

Limit recursion depth when flushing the starved_list
of a scsi_host.
