cciss: set max scatter gather entries to 32 on P600

At one time we used to set the maximum number of scatter gather elements
on all Smart Array controllers to 32.  At some point in time the
firmware began to write the "appropriate" value for each controller into
the config table.  The cciss driver would then read that and set
h->maxsgentries.

        h->maxsgentries = readl(&(h->cfgtable->MaxSGElements);

On the P600 that value is 544.  Under some workloads a significant
performance reduction may result.  This patch forces the P600 to use
only 32 scatter gather elements.  Other controllers are not affected.
