scsi: storvsc: Select channel based on available percentage of ring buffer to write
This is a best effort for estimating on how busy the ring buffer is for
that channel, based on available buffer to write in percentage. It is
still possible that at the time of actual ring buffer write, the space
may not be available due to other processes may be writing at the time.
Selecting a channel based on how full it is can reduce the possibility
that a ring buffer write will fail, and avoid the situation a channel is
over busy.
Now it's possible that storvsc can use a smaller ring buffer size
(e.g. 40k bytes) to take advantage of cache locality.
