isci: preallocate requests

the dma_pool interface is optimized for object_size << page_size which
is not the case with isci_request objects and the dma_pool routines show
up in the top of the profile.

The old io_request_table which tracked whether tci slots were in-flight
or not is replaced with an IREQ_ACTIVE flag per request.
