blk-mq: fix potential hang if rolling wakeup depth is too high
commit abab13b5c4fd1fec4f9a61622548012d93dc2831 upstream. We currently divide the queue depth by 4 as our batch wakeup count, but we split the wakeups over BT_WAIT_QUEUES number of wait queues. This defaults to 8. If the product of the resulting batch wake count and BT_WAIT_QUEUES is higher than the device queue depth, we can get into a situation where a task goes to sleep waiting for a request, but never gets woken up.
