storvsc doesn't use a dedicated hardware queue for a given CPU queue. When
issuing I/O, it selects returning CPU (hardware queue) dynamically based on
vmbus channel usage across all channels.

This patch advertises num_present_cpus() as number of hardware queues. This
will have upper layer setup 1:1 mapping between hardware queue and CPU queue
and avoid unnecessary locking when issuing I/O.

Changes:
v2: rely on default upper layer function to map queues. (suggested by Ming Lei
<tom.leiming@xxxxxxxxx>)
v3: use num_present_cpus() instead of num_online_cpus(). Hyper-v doesn't
support hot-add CPUs. (suggested by Michael Kelley <mikelley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>)
v4: move change logs to after Signed-of-by

Just looking at the change notes for v3: why isn't this
num_active_cpus() then? One can still isolate CPUs on hyper-v, no?
