Re: 4.14: WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 2895 at block/blk-mq.c:1144 with virtio-blk (also 4.12 stable)

[Christoph Hellwig]

FYI, the patch below changes both the irq and block mappings to
always use the cpu possible map (should be split in two in due time).

I think this is the right way forward.  For every normal machine
those two are the same, but for VMs with maxcpus above their normal
count or some big iron that can grow more cpus it means we waster
a few more resources for the not present but reserved cpus.  It
fixes the reported issue for me:
