blk-mq: fix hang in bt_get()
Avoid that if there are fewer hardware queues than CPU threads that
bt_get() can hang. The symptoms of the hang were as follows:
* All tags allocated for a particular hardware queue.
* (nr_tags) pending commands for that hardware queue.
* No pending commands for the software queues associated with that
hardware queue.
