When a host sense that its controller session is damaged,
it tries to re-establish it periodically (reconnect every
reconnect_delay). It may very well be that the controller
is gone and never coming back, in this case the host will
try to reconnect forever.
Add a ctrl_loss_tmo to bound the number of reconnect attempts
to a specific controller (default to a reasonable 10 minutes).
The timeout configuration is actually translated into number of
reconnect attempts and not a schedule on its own but rather
divided with reconnect_delay. This is useful to prevent
racing flows of remove and reconnect, and it doesn't really
matter if we remove slightly sooner than what the user requested.

nvmf_create_ctrl() relys on the presence of a create_crtl callback in the
registered nvmf_transport_ops, so make nvmf_register_transport require one.
Update the available call-sites as well to reflect these changes.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block layer changes in 4.9.
As mentioned at the last merge window, I've changed things up and now
do just one branch for core block layer changes, and driver changes.
This avoids dependencies between the two branches. Outside of this
main pull request, there are two topical branches coming as well.
This pull request contains:
- A set of fixes, and a conversion to blk-mq, of nbd. From Josef.
- Set of fixes and updates for lightnvm from Matias, Simon, and Arnd.
Followup dependency fix from Geert.
- General fixes from Bart, Baoyou, Guoqing, and Linus W.
- CFQ async write starvation fix from Glauber.
- Add supprot for delayed kick of the requeue list, from Mike.
- Pull out the scalable bitmap code from blk-mq-tag.c and make it
generally available under the name of sbitmap. Only blk-mq-tag uses
it for now, but the blk-mq scheduling bits will use it as well.
From Omar.
- bdev thaw error progagation from Pierre.
- Improve the blk polling statistics, and allow the user to clear
them. From Stephen.
- Set of minor cleanups from Christoph in block/blk-mq.
- Set of cleanups and optimizations from me for block/blk-mq.
- Various nvme/nvmet/nvmeof fixes from the various folks"
* 'for-4.9/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (54 commits)
fs/block_dev.c: return the right error in thaw_bdev()
nvme: Pass pointers, not dma addresses, to nvme_get/set_features()
nvme/scsi: Remove power management support
nvmet: Make dsm number of ranges zero based
nvmet: Use direct IO for writes
admin-cmd: Added smart-log command support.
nvme-fabrics: Add host_traddr options field to host infrastructure
nvme-fabrics: revise host transport option descriptions
nvme-fabrics: rework nvmf_get_address() for variable options
nbd: use BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING
blkcg: Annotate blkg_hint correctly
cfq: fix starvation of asynchronous writes
blk-mq: add flag for drivers wanting blocking ->queue_rq()
blk-mq: remove non-blocking pass in blk_mq_map_request
blk-mq: get rid of manual run of queue with __blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
block: export bio_free_pages to other modules
lightnvm: propagate device_add() error code
lightnvm: expose device geometry through sysfs
lightnvm: control life of nvm_dev in driver
blk-mq: register device instead of disk
...
Add the host_traddr field to allow specification of the host-port
connection info for the transport. Will be used by FC transport.

NVM Express 1.2.1 section 7.9, NVMe Qualified Names, specifies that the
UUID format of NQN uses a UUID based on RFC 4122.
RFC 4122 specifies that the UUID is encoded in big-endian byte order.
Switch the NVMe over Fabrics host ID field from little-endian UUID to
big-endian UUID to match the specification.

The timeout before error recovery logic kicks in is
dictated by the nvme keep-alive, so we don't really need
a transport layer retry count. transports can retry for
as much as they like.

Periodic keep-alive is a mandatory feature in NVMe over Fabrics, and
optional in NVMe 1.2.1 for PCIe. This patch adds periodic keep-alive
sent from the host to verify that the controller is still responsive
and vice-versa. The keep-alive timeout is user-defined (with
keep_alive_tmo connection parameter) and defaults to 5 seconds.
In order to avoid a race condition where the host sends a keep-alive
competing with the target side keep-alive timeout expiration, the host
adds a grace period of 10 seconds when publishing the keep-alive timeout
to the target.
In case a keep-alive failed (or timed out), a transport specific error
recovery kicks in.
For now only NVMe over Fabrics is wired up to support keep alive, but
we can add PCIe support easily once controllers actually supporting it
become available.

The NVMe over Fabrics library provides an interface for both transports
and the nvme core to handle fabrics specific commands and attributes
independent of the underlying transport.
In addition, the fabrics library adds a misc device interface that allow
actually creating a fabrics controller, as we can't just autodiscover
it like in the PCI case. The nvme-cli utility has been enhanced to use
this interface to support fabric connect and discovery.
