  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi folks,

  Please include the following code whenever Ubuntu 13.10 is installed
  on Hyper-V:

  1) [SCSI] storvsc: Support FC devices

  2)     [SCSI] Drivers: scsi: storvsc: Increase the value of STORVSC_MAX_IO_REQUESTS
      
      Increase the value of STORVSC_MAX_IO_REQUESTS to 200 requests. The current
      ringbuffer size can support this higher value.

  5)       [SCSI] storvsc: Increase the value of scsi timeout for storvsc devices
      
      The standard scsi timeout is not appropriate in some of the environments where
      Hyper-V is deployed. Set this timeout appropriately for all devices managed
      by this driver.
      
      On cloud environments where storage latencies may be unbounded, having the
      scsi layer initiating recovery can be problematic since (a) the host is
      already implementing a variety of recovery strategies and (b) implementing a
      recovery strategy at the VM level may be more appropriate in cases where
      storage latencies exceed a certain threshold.
