Max Gurtovoy fe631457ff blk-mq: map all HWQ also in hyperthreaded system
This patch performs sequential mapping between CPUs and queues.
In case the system has more CPUs than HWQs then there are still
CPUs to map to HWQs. In hyperthreaded system, map the unmapped CPUs
and their siblings to the same HWQ.
This actually fixes a bug that found unmapped HWQs in a system with
2 sockets, 18 cores per socket, 2 threads per core (total 72 CPUs)
running NVMEoF (opens upto maximum of 64 HWQs).

Performance results running fio (72 jobs, 128 iodepth)
using null_blk (w/w.o patch):

bs      IOPS(read submit_queues=72)   IOPS(write submit_queues=72)   IOPS(read submit_queues=24)  IOPS(write submit_queues=24)

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
