Move PCI_VENDOR_ID_VMWARE from device-specific files to pci_ids.h.
It is useful to always have access to it, especially when accessing
subsystem_vendor_id on emulated devices.

[bhelgaas: keep pci_ids.h sorted and use lower-case hex]

This change is about the following:
(1) If the number of targets is 16+ then default ring_pages to 32.
(2) Change default queue depth (per device) to 254.
(3) Implement change_queue_depth function so that queue_depth per device can
be changed at run time. Honors the request only if coming from sysfs.
(4) Clean up the info returned by modinfo.

This change allows pvscsi driver to coalesce I/O requests
before issuing them. The number of I/O's coalesced can be
dynamically configured based on the workload.

This change ensures that pvscsi_abort() function returns SUCCESS
only when the command in question was actually completed, otherwise
returns FAILURE. The code before change, was causing a bug where
driver tries to complete a command to the mid-layer while the mid-layer
has already requested the driver to abort that command, in response
to which the driver has responded with SUCCESS causing mid-layer
to free the command struct.

Fetch the config page from the device to learn max target id to set
host->max_id.

Also, fix some indentation issues and update the 'Maintained by' field.

This is a driver for VMware's paravirtualized SCSI device,
which should improve disk performance for guests running
under control of VMware hypervisors that support such devices.
