[PATCH v2 1/3] blk-mq: add blk_mq_num_possible_queues helper

Multi queue devices which use managed IRQs should only allocate queues
for the housekeeping CPUs when isolcpus is set. This avoids that the
isolated CPUs get disturbed with OS workload.

Add a helper which calculates the correct number of queues which should
be used.
