The nvme pci module had been allowing bad values to the specialized
polled and write queues that could have caused the driver to allocate
queues incorrectly or unoptimally.

For example, on a system with 16 CPUs, if I have module parameter
nvme.write_queues=17, we would get only 1 read queue no matter how many
the drive supported:

  # dmesg | grep nvme | grep "poll queues"
  nvme nvme2: 16/1/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme1: 16/1/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme0: 16/1/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme3: 16/1/2 default/read/poll queues

But after fixing:

  # dmesg | grep nvme | grep "poll queues"
  nvme nvme1: 16/16/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme2: 16/13/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme0: 16/16/2 default/read/poll queues
  nvme nvme3: 16/13/2 default/read/poll queues

We just need to fix the calculation so that we don't throttle the total
number of possible desired queues incorrectly. The first two patches
ensure the module parameters are withing reasonable boundaries to
simplify counting the number of interrupts we want to allocate.

  nvme/pci: Fix write and poll queue types
  nvme/pci Limit write queue sizes to possible cpus
  nvme/pci: Fix read queue count
