No, that's entirely incorrect.  IFF a device supports multiple hardware
queues we only submit I/O from CPUs (there might be more than one) this
queue is bound to.  With the single hardware queue supported by most
hardware submissions can and will happen from any CPU.  Note that
this patchset doesn't even support multiple hardware queues yet, although
it should be fairly simple to add once the low level driver support is
ready.
