[SCSI] ibmvscsi compatibility fix
Linda Xie ever so gently pointed out that she had a patch to preserve compatibility with older SLES targets, and I told her we didn't need to push it to mainline. This patch explicitly checks the version of the IBMVSCSI target and ensures that large scatterlists are not sent to older targets.
