[PATCH 5/5] scsi: virtio_scsi: fix IO hang by irq vector automatic affinity

Now 84676c1f21e8ff5(genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs)
has been merged to V4.16-rc, and it is easy to allocate all offline CPUs
for some irq vectors, this can't be avoided even though the allocation
is improved.

For example, on a 8cores VM, 4~7 are not-present/offline, 4 queues of
virtio-scsi, the irq affinity assigned can become the following shape:

irq 36, cpu list 0-7
irq 37, cpu list 0-7
irq 38, cpu list 0-7
irq 39, cpu list 0-1
irq 40, cpu list 4,6
irq 41, cpu list 2-3
irq 42, cpu list 5,7

Then IO hang is triggered in case of non-SCSI_MQ.

Given storage IO is always C/S model, there isn't such issue with SCSI_MQ(blk-mq),
because no IO can be submitted to one hw queue if the hw queue hasn't online
CPUs.

Fix this issue by forcing to use blk_mq.

BTW, I have been used virtio-scsi(scsi_mq) for several years, and it has
been quite stable, so it shouldn't cause extra risk.
