Keith Busch 868f2f0b72 blk-mq: dynamic h/w context count
The hardware's provided queue count may change at runtime with resource
provisioning. This patch allows a block driver to alter the number of
h/w queues available when its resource count changes.

The main part is a new blk-mq API to request a new number of h/w queues
for a given live tag set. The new API freezes all queues using that set,
then adjusts the allocated count prior to remapping these to CPUs.

The bulk of the rest just shifts where h/w contexts and all their
artifacts are allocated and freed.

The number of max h/w contexts is capped to the number of possible cpus
since there is no use for more than that. As such, all pre-allocated
memory for pointers need to account for the max possible rather than
the initial number of queues.

A side effect of this is that the blk-mq will proceed successfully as
long as it can allocate at least one h/w context. Previously it would
fail request queue initialization if less than the requested number
was allocated.
