scsi: storvsc: Fix calculation of sub-channel count
When the number of sub-channels offered by Hyper-V is >= the number of CPUs in the VM, calculate the correct number of sub-channels. The current code produces one too many. This scenario arises only when the number of CPUs is artificially restricted (for example, with maxcpus=<n> on the kernel boot line), because Hyper-V normally offers a sub-channel count < number of CPUs. While the current code doesn't break, the extra sub-channel is unbalanced across the CPUs (for example, a total of 5 channels on a VM with 4 CPUs).
