vhost-user-blk: Check that num-queues is supported by backend
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Creating a device with a number of queues that isn't supported by the
backend is pointless, the device won't work properly and the error
messages are rather confusing.

Just fail to create the device if num-queues is higher than what the
backend supports.

Since the relationship between num-queues and the number of virtqueues
depends on the specific device, this is an additional value that needs
to be initialised by the device. For convenience, allow leaving it 0 if
the check should be skipped. This makes sense for vhost-user-net where
separate vhost devices are used for the queues and custom initialisation
code is needed to perform the check.
