[PATCH] nvme-pci: Fix incorrect use of CMB size to calculate q_depth

From: Stephen Bates <sbates at raithlin.com>

We should not be using the CMB to determine the permissable q_depth
when we don't plan to place any queues in the CMB. In the case of a
small CMB or large numbers of queues this could lead to shallow queues
when they don't need to be.
