iommu sg merging: call dma_set_seg_boundary in __scsi_alloc_queue()

This is a one-line patch to add the following to __scsi_alloc_queue():

dma_set_seg_boundary(dev, shost->dma_boundary);

This is the simplest approach but the result looks odd,
__scsi_alloc_queue() does:

blk_queue_segment_boundary(q, shost->dma_boundary);
dma_set_seg_boundary(dev, shost->dma_boundary);
blk_queue_max_segment_size(q, dma_get_max_seg_size(dev));

I think that it would be better to set up segment boundary in the same
way as we did for the maximum segment size. That is, removing
shost->dma_boundary and LLDs call pci_set_dma_seg_boundary (or its
friends).

Then __scsi_alloc_queue() can set up both limits in the same way:

blk_queue_segment_boundary(q, dma_get_seg_boundary(dev));
blk_queue_max_segment_size(q, dma_get_max_seg_size(dev));

killing dma_boundary in scsi_host_template needs a large patch for
libata (dma_boundary is used by only libata and sym53c8xx). I'll send
a patch to do that if it is acceptable. James and Jeff?
