How about adding connection option "--nr-io-queues 2"? If we add
this option then we may not need to have the requirement of
_require_min_cpus 2. I think, we shall be able to run this test
also on the system with only one cpu.

Can we also add one more test here which tests whether "$qdir"
exists or not?

I think using --nr-io-queues option would also replace the above relative
comparison with an exact comparison based on num of queues selected.

The reset test could be updated to ensure that number of queues
remains unchanged after controller reset. Current test_reset()
verifies that the io_cpu and managed attributes retain their expected
values after reset. However, it doesn't explicitly verify that the
queue directories were recreated with the same count. I would capture
the queue_count before reset and compare it afterward as well as
ensure that queue_count matches with nr_queue_dirs.

Thanks,
