[SCSI] sym53c8xx: Remove tag_ctrl module parameter
With sysfs making these options tunable at runtime, there's no justification for keeping this horrendously complex specification string around. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

- Example:
- tag_ctrl=10/t2t3q16-t5q24/t1u2q32
- will set devices queue depth as follow:
- - controller #0 target #2 and target #3 -> 16 commands,
- - controller #0 target #5 -> 24 commands,
- - controller #1 target #1 logical unit #2 -> 32 commands,
