Public bug reported:

[SRU Justification]

[Impact]
Some NVMe operations time out too quickly. The module parameters allow the 
timeouts to be extended, but only up to 255s, as the counters are bytes. 

[Fix]
The underlying parameters are unsigned ints, so make the module parameters 
unsigned ints too, by picking patch

[Regression Potential]
Very limited: only types of module parameters are changing, the patch is easily 
reviewable.
