We don't update hctx->cpumask when CPU is added/removed, and that is
assigned against cpu_possible_mask from beginning.

It is one long-term issue, which can be triggered when all cpus in
hctx->cpumask become offline. The thing is that only nvmf_connect_io_queue()
allocates request via specified hctx.
