[SCSI] storvsc: Increase the value of scsi timeout for storvsc devices

The standard scsi timeout is not appropriate in some of the environments where
Hyper-V is deployed. Set this timeout appropriately for all devices managed
by this driver.

On cloud environments where storage latencies may be unbounded, having the
scsi layer initiating recovery can be problematic since (a) the host is
already implementing a variety of recovery strategies and (b) implementing a
recovery strategy at the VM level may be more appropriate in cases where
storage latencies exceed a certain threshold.
