From: Or Gerlitz <ogerl...@mellanox.com>

commit f57915cfa5b2b14c1cffa2e83c034f55e3f0e70d upstream.

This patch adds a max_send_sge=2 minimum in isert_conn_setup_qp()
to ensure outgoing control PDU responses with tx_desc->num_sge=2
are able to function correctly.

This addresses a bug with RDMA hardware using dev_attr.max_sge=3,
that in the original code with the ConnectX-2 work-around would
result in isert_conn->max_sge=1 being negotiated.

Originally reported by Chris with ocrdma driver.
