[PATCH] nvme-pci: introduce parameter to clamp io queues

From: Keith Busch <[email protected]>

Large deployments can have the nvme driver's resource requests easily
exceed the platform's interrupt capabilities leading to an unbalanced
allocation. The driver doesn't know what devices it may see, so it can
not determine reasonable limits for itself. Provide a user settable
module parameter to limit the number of IO queues the driver may
request.
