scsi: virtio: virtio_scsi: Set can_queue to the length of the virtqueue.
Since switching to blk-mq as the default in commit 5c279bd9 ("scsi: default to scsi-mq"), virtio-scsi LUNs consume about 10x as much kernel memory. qemu currently allocates a fixed 128 entry virtqueue. can_queue currently is set to 1024. But with indirect descriptors, each command in the queue takes 1 virtqueue entry, so the number of commands which can be queued is equal to the length of the virtqueue. Note I intend to send a patch to qemu to allow the virtqueue size to be configured from the qemu command line. Signed-off-by: Richard W.M.
