IIRC this was raised on earlier versions of the series, but i don't
recall the outcome and no caveats are mentioned here...

Is this default still valid for very large $vCPUs. eg if I run QEMU
with "-smp 512" or even larger (I've seen people discussing 1000's of
CPUs), is this going to cause problems with the virtio-scsi default
queue counts ? Is there such a thing as "too large" for the num
of queues setting ?   num vectors defaults to a value derived from
num queues, so is there concept of "too large" for num of vectors
setting ?

Ideally the commit message would answer these questions for future
reference.  Same for the next patch to virtio-blk
