This patch will add capability in driver to tell firmware that it can
throttle IOs in case controller's queue depth is downgraded post OFU
(online firmware upgrade). This feature will ensure firmware can be
downgraded from higher queue depth to lower queue depth without needing
system reboot. Added throttling code in IO path of driver, in case OS
tries to send more IOs than post OFU firmware's queue depth.
