Because all hw queues share the queue wide budget, and once budget
is available, all hw queues are re-run, and the hw queue won't be
scheduled actually if there is nothing to run, see
blk_mq_run_hw_queue().

From your setting, megaraid should sets ->host_tagset, that said there
is only 128 tags for all 4 NVMEs(128 hw queue shares the all 128 tags
too).

That looks one really bad setting.

BTW, why do you drive nvme via megaraid instead nvme driver?

That isn't true, each hctx is still run in case of none & kyber scheduler.
