[PATCH V2 0/9] blk-mq: fix wrong queue mapping for kdump kernel

[Ming Lei]

Hi,

On arm and ppc64, 'maxcpus=1' is required for kdump kernel,
see `Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst`, so num_possible_cpus()
still returns all CPUs because 'maxcpus=1' just bring up one single
cpu core during booting.

blk-mq sees single queue in kdump kernel, and in driver's viewpoint
there are still multiple queues, this inconsistency causes driver to apply
wrong queue mapping for handling IO, and IO timeout is triggered.

This issue is only triggered on managed irq in case of multiple hw
queues. Some drivers takes online cpus into account for nr_hw_queues,
and don't have such issue, such as nvme rdma/tcp.

Meantime, single queue makes much less resource utilization, and reduce
risk of kernel failure.

V2:
	- add helper of scsi_max_nr_hw_queues() for avoiding potential build
	failure because scsi driver often doesn't deal with blk-mq directly
	- apply scsi_max_nr_hw_queues() for all scsi changes
	- move lpfc's change into managed irq code path


Thanks,
Ming
