It's normal rounding, you'll round down otherwise. Say you have a tag
depth of 31 (SATA), and 4 active users. Your change would make that 7
tags per user, leaving 3 idle. If you round up, you end up with 8 tags
instead. That will potentially just leave some sleeping for a new tag,
but at least you'll exhaust the space.
