vmw_pvscsi: Expand vcpuHint to 16 bit to aliagn with host side change.

vcpuHint has been expanded to 16 bit on host side to enable interruptions to be routed to more CPUs. Guest side should align with the change. 
This change has been tested with hosts with 8-bit and 16-bit vcpuHint, on both platforms host side can get correct value.
