This patch adds a new state that when set has the core automatically
kill request queues prior to removing namespaces.
If PCI device is not present at the time the nvme driver's remove is
called, we can kill all IO queues immediately instead of waiting for
the watchdog thread to do that at its polling interval. This improves
scenarios where multiple hot plug events occur at the same time since
it doesn't block the pci enumeration for as long.

Instead of removing the PCI device from the kernel's topology on
controller failure, this patch simply requests unbinding the device
from the driver. This avoids concurrently running pci removal with the
hot plug event, which has been reported to be problematic when multiple
surprise events occur near simultaneously.
The other benefit is that we will have PCI config and memory space
available to poke around for debugging a failed controller, assuming
the device was not physically removed.
The down side occurs if the platform and/or kernel do not support any
type of surprise hot removal. The device will remain visible through
sysfs (and therefore lspci), and some manual work is necessary to get
the logical topology corrected. But if your platform and/or kernel don't
support surprise removal, you probably shouldn't be doing that anyway.

to use its own callback function to update its data structures in the

state and any flags needed to fulfill the update.
Refactor ops->get_bb_tbl() to fill a data buffer with the status of the

flushed reset_work after controller disable to unblock reset_work waiting

To fix, the reset work is flushed immediately after setting the controller
removing flag, and any subsequent reset will not proceed with controller
initialization if the flag is set.

is also left active until the controller is disabled to cleanup requests

Multiple users have reported device initialization failure due the driver

There have been no issues reported or observed when with message signaled
interrupts, so this patch attempts to use MSI-x during initialization,
falling back to MSI. If that fails, legacy would become the default.
The setup_io_queues error handling had to change as a result: the admin
queue's msix_entry used to be initialized to the legacy IRQ. The case
where nr_io_queues is 0 would fail request_irq when setting up the admin
queue's interrupt since re-enabling MSI-x fails with 0 vectors, leaving

If we don't check for this on nvme_watchdog_timer(), error recovery
mechanism can't recover well, because reset_work() won't be able to
do its job (since we're in the middle of an error) and so the
controller is removed from the system before error recovery mechanism
can perform slot reset (which would allow the adapter to recover).

The method to uniquely identify a namespace depends on the controller's
specification revision level and implemented capabilities. This patch
has the driver figure this out and exports the unique string through a
single 'wwid' attribute so the user doesn't have this burden.
The longest namespace unique identifier is used if available. If not
available, the driver will concat the controller's vendor, serial,
and model with the namespace ID. The specification provides this as a
unique indentifier.
