No, but it's very useful.  We'll need equivalents for other busses
that provide multipl vectors and vector spreading.

Everything will be crashing and burning because you call to_pci_dev on
something that's not a PCI dev?

For the next merge window I plan to wire up the affinity information
for the RDMA code, and I will add a counterpart to blk_mq_pci_map_queues
that spreads the queues over the completion vectors.
