[ Upstream commit b4e78f1427c7d6859229ae9616df54e1fc05a516 ]

dev->online_queues is a count incremented in nvme_init_queue. Thus,
valid indices are 0 through dev->online_queues − 1.

This patch fixes the loop condition to ensure the index stays within the
valid range. Index 0 is excluded because it is the admin queue.
