[SCSI] hpsa: sanitize max commands
Some controllers might try to tell us they support 0 commands
in performant mode. This is a lie told by buggy firmware.
We have to be wary of this lest we try to allocate a negative
number of command blocks, which will be treated as unsigned,
and get an out of memory condition.
