I tested this and it is working fine for me. This actually solves the QD
not changing problem I had detected with the pm80xx driver.
Now, doing this:

# cat /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
32
# echo 16 > /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
# cat /sys/block/sde/device/queue_depth
16

is working as expected.

See my comments on patch 2 for getting final ack and tested tags :)
