Commit 0ed881027690 ("scsi: storvsc: setup 1:1 mapping between hardware queue and CPU queue")
introduced a regression for disks attached to IDE. For these disks the host VSP only offers
one VMBUS channel. Setting multiple queues can overload the VMBUS channel and result in
performance drop for high queue depth workload on system with large number of CPUs.

Fix it by leaving the number of hardware queues to 1 (default value) for IDE
disks.

Applied to 5.5/scsi-fixes, thanks!
