Subject: [PATCH] scsi: storvsc: Correctly set number of hardware queues for IDE disk

From: Long Li <[email protected]>

Commit 0ed881027690 ("scsi: storvsc: setup 1:1 mapping between hardware queue and CPU queue")
introduced a regression for disks attached to IDE. For these disks the host VSP only offers
one VMBUS channel. Setting multiple queues can overload the VMBUS channel and result in
performance drop for high queue depth workload on system with large number of CPUs.

Fix it by leaving the number of hardware queues to 1 (default value) for IDE
disks.

This function already has a pre-computed value of this test in
the local variable "dev_is_ide". It would be more consistent
to just use it.

I will send v2 to address this.
