Qemu unconditionally reports a UUID, which depending on the qemu version
is either all-null (which is incorrect but harmless) or contains a single
bit set for all controllers.  In addition it can also optionally report
a eui64 which needs to be manually set.  Disable namespace identifiers
for Qemu controlles entirely even if in some cases they could be set
correctly through manual intervention.

<content type='text'>
Add a quirk to disable using and exporting namespace identifiers for
controllers where they are broken beyond repair.

The most directly visible problem with non-unique namespace identifiers
is that they break the /dev/disk/by-id/ links, with the link for a
supposedly unique identifier now pointing to one of multiple possible
namespaces that share the same ID, and a somewhat random selection of
which one actually shows up.

<title>nvme: don't print verbose errors for internal passthrough requests</title>

Use the RQF_QUIET flag to skip the newly added verbose error reporting,
and set the flag in __nvme_submit_sync_cmd, which is used for most
internal passthrough requests where we do expect errors (e.g. due to
probing for optional functionality).  This is similar to what the SCSI
verbose error logging does.

nvme_mpath_init_identify() invoked from nvme_init_identify() fetches a
fresh ANA log from the ctrl.  This is essential to have an up to date
path states for both existing namespaces and for those scan_work may
discover once the ctrl is up.

This happens in the following cases:
  1) A new ctrl is being connected.
  2) An existing ctrl is successfully reconnected.
  3) An existing ctrl is being reset.

While in (1) ctrl-&gt;namespaces is empty, (2 &amp; 3) may have namespaces, and
nvme_read_ana_log() may call nvme_update_ns_ana_state().

This result in a hang when the ANA state of an existing namespace changes
and makes the disk live: nvme_mpath_set_live() issues IO to the namespace
through the ctrl, which does NOT have IO queues yet.

See sample hang below.

Solution:
- nvme_update_ns_ana_state() to call set_live only if ctrl is live
- nvme_read_ana_log() call from nvme_mpath_init_identify()
  therefore only fetches and parses the ANA log;
  any erros in this process will fail the ctrl setup as appropriate;
- a separate function nvme_mpath_update()
  is called in nvme_start_ctrl();
  this parses the ANA log without fetching it.
  At this point the ctrl is live,
  therefore, disks can be set live normally.

Sample failure:
    nvme nvme0: starting error recovery
    nvme nvme0: Reconnecting in 10 seconds...
    block nvme0n6: no usable path - requeuing I/O

Make nvme_ns_remove match the assumptions elsewhere.

1) !NVME_NS_READY needs to be srcu synchronized to make sure nothing is
   running in __nvme_find_path or nvme_round_robin_path that will
   re-assign this ns to current_path.

2) Any matching current_path entries need to be cleared before removing
   from the siblings list, to prevent calling nvme_round_robin_path with
   an "old" ns that's off list.

3) Finally the list_del_rcu can happen, and then synchronize again
   before releasing any reference counts.

A NVMe subsystem with multiple controller can have private namespaces
that use the same NSID under some conditions:

 "If Namespace Management, ANA Reporting, or NVM Sets are supported, the
  NSIDs shall be unique within the NVM subsystem. If the Namespace
  Management, ANA Reporting, and NVM Sets are not supported, then NSIDs:
   a) for shared namespace shall be unique; and
   b) for private namespace are not required to be unique."

Reference: Section 6.1.6 NSID and Namespace Usage; NVM Express 1.4c spec.

Make sure this specific setup is supported in Linux.

Fixes: 9ad1927a3bc2 ("nvme: always search for namespace head")

The left shift is followed by a re-assignment back to cc_css, the
assignment is redundant.  Fix this by replacing the "&lt;&lt;=" operator with
"&lt;&lt;" instead.

This cleans up the clang scan build warning:

drivers/nvme/target/core.c:1124:10: warning: Although the value stored to 'cc_css' is used in the enclosing expression, the value is never actually read from 'cc_css' [deadcode.DeadStores]

<title>nvmet: use a private workqueue instead of the system workqueue</title>

Any attempt to flush kernel-global WQs has possibility of deadlock
so we should simply stop using them, instead introduce nvmet_wq
which is the generic nvmet workqueue for work elements that
don't explicitly require a dedicated workqueue (by the mere fact
that they are using the system_wq).

Changes were done using the following replaces:

 - s/schedule_work(/queue_work(nvmet_wq, /g
 - s/schedule_delayed_work(/queue_delayed_work(nvmet_wq, /g
 - s/flush_scheduled_work()/flush_workqueue(nvmet_wq)/g
