453 This option allows you to specify a command queue depth for each device

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