[Impact]
This patch adds the ability to set the number of hardware queues with new module
parameter, storvsc_max_hw_queues.
This functionality is useful in Microsoft Azure) where decreasing the number of
hardware queues has been shown to improve performance.
[Test Plan]
Install the hv_storvsc module with a parameter (storvsc_max_hw_queues)
and observe the result.
[Where problems could occur]
num_present_cpus() may not be the same as num_online_cpus() which
appears to be a minor difference.
