[PATCH 4/5] scsi: storvsc: Don't assume cpu_possible_mask is dense

[mhkelley58]

From: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Current code allocates the stor_chns array with size num_possible_cpus().
This code assumes cpu_possible_mask is dense, which is not true in
the general case per [1]. If cpu_possible_mask is sparse, the array
might be indexed by a value beyond the size of the array.

However, the configurations that Hyper-V provides to guest VMs on x86
and ARM64 hardware, in combination with how architecture specific code
assigns Linux CPU numbers, *does* always produce a dense cpu_possible_mask.
So the dense assumption is not currently causing failures. But for
robustness against future changes in how cpu_possible_mask is populated,
update the code to no longer assume dense.

The correct approach is to allocate and initialize the array using size
"nr_cpu_ids". While this leaves unused array entries corresponding to
holes in cpu_possible_mask, the holes are assumed to be minimal and hence
the amount of memory wasted by unused entries is minimal.
