[PATCH v2] net: netvsc: Update default VMBus channels

[Erni Sri Satya Vennela <ernis@linux.microsoft.com>]

Change VMBus channels macro (VRSS_CHANNEL_DEFAULT) in
Linux netvsc from 8 to 16 to align with Azure Windows VM
and improve networking throughput.

For VMs having less than 16 vCPUS, the channels depend
on number of vCPUs. Between 16 to 32 vCPUs, the channels
default to VRSS_CHANNEL_DEFAULT. For greater than 32 vCPUs,
set the channels to number of physical cores / 2 as a way
to optimize CPU resource utilization and scale for high-end
processors with many cores.
Maximum number of channels are by default set to 64.

Based on this change the subchannel creation would change as follows:

-------------------------------------------------------------
|No. of vCPU	|dev_info->num_chn	|subchannel created |
-------------------------------------------------------------
|  0-16		|	16		|	vCPU	    |
| >16 & <=32	|	16		|	16          |
| >32 & <=128	|	vCPU/2		|	vCPU/2      |
| >128		|	vCPU/2		|	64          |
-------------------------------------------------------------

Performance tests showed significant improvement in throughput:
- 0.54% for 16 vCPUs
- 0.83% for 32 vCPUs
- 1.76% for 48 vCPUs
- 10.35% for 64 vCPUs
- 13.47% for 96 vCPUs
