nit: you could just always set shost->virt_boundary_mask =
sht->virt_boundary_mask
I could, but it would change behavior and break drivers.  The SCSI
midlayer allows overriding the template provided values in the host
itself after allocating and before adding it.  For the
virt_boundary_mask that features is used by iser and srp.

Since shost is zero-init'ed, I did not think that my suggestion for this minor simplification in scsi_host_alloc() logically changes anything.
