  r332385:
      hyperv/storvsc: storvsc_io_done(): do not use CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT

      CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT was introduced in
      https://reviews.freebsd.org/D7521 (r304251), which claimed:

      "VM shall response to CAM layer with CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT to filter those
      invalid LUNs. Never use CAM_DEV_NOT_THERE which will block LUN scan
      for LUN number higher than 7."

      But it turns out this is not correct:

      I think what really filters the invalid LUNs in r304251 is that:
      before r304251, we could set the CAM_REQ_CMP without checking
      vm_srb->srb_status at all:
      ccb->ccb_h.status |= CAM_REQ_CMP.

      r304251 checks vm_srb->srb_status and sets ccb->ccb_h.status properly,
      so the invalid LUNs are filtered.

      I changed my code version to r304251 but replaced the CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT
      with CAM_DEV_NOT_THERE, and I confirmed the invalid LUNs can also be
      filtered, and I successfully hot-added and hot-removed 8 disks to/from
      the VM without any issue.

      CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT has an unwanted side effect -- see cam_periph_error():
      For a selection timeout, we consider all of the LUNs on
      the target to be gone. If the status is CAM_DEV_NOT_THERE,
      then we only get rid of the device(s) specified by the
      path in the original CCB.

      This means: for a VM with a valid LUN on 3:0:0:0, when the VM inquires
      3:0:0:1 and the host reports 3:0:0:1 doesn't exist and storvsc returns
      CAM_SEL_TIMEOUT to the CAM layer, CAM will detech 3:0:0:0 as well: this
      is the bug I reported recently:
