scsi: core: Allow enabling and disabling command duration limits



Add the sysfs scsi_device attribute cdl_enable to allow a user to enable or
disable a device command duration limits feature. CDL is disabled by
default. This feature must be explicitly enabled by a user by setting the
cdl_enable attribute to 1.

The new function scsi_cdl_enable() does not do anything beside setting the
cdl_enable field of struct scsi_device in the case of a (real) SCSI device
(e.g. a SAS HDD). For ATA devices, the command duration limits feature
needs to be enabled/disabled using the ATA feature sub-page of the control
mode page. To do so, the scsi_cdl_enable() function checks if this mode
page is supported using scsi_mode_sense(). If it is, scsi_mode_select() is
used to enable and disable CDL.
