[PATCH RESEND 1/2] SCSI: use scsi_device-timeout consistently

Each high level driver uses scsi_device-timeout diffrently. * sd sets sdev-timeout to SD_TIMEOUT if it's zero on attach. sdev-timeout is used for commands received from block queue but internal commands use SD_TIMEOUT directly. * sr uses constant SR_TIMEOUT for all non-ioctl commands and
