<title>nvme: remove ns sibling before clearing path</title>

<content type='text'>
The code had been clearing a namespace being deleted as the current
path while that namespace was still in the path siblings list. It is
possible a new IO could set that namespace back to the current path
since it appeared to be an eligable path to select, which may result in
a use-after-free error.

This patch ensures a namespace being removed is not eligable to be reset
as a current path prior to clearing it as the current path.

NVMe 1.3 TP 4005 introduces new filed (NSATTR). This field indicates
whether given namespace is write protected or not. This patch sets the
gendisk associated with the namespace to read only based on the identify
namespace nsattr field.

Also moved the logic of the remapping to the nvme core driver instead
of implementing it in the nvme pci driver. This way all the other nvme
transport drivers will benefit from it (in case they'll implement metadata
support).

Currently this function is implemented in the scsi layer, but it's
actual place should be the block layer since T10-PI is a general
data integrity feature that is used in the nvme protocol as well.

<id>0d0b660f214dc4905db7b6bc998bad0c16dfb1ba</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for Asynchronous Namespace Access as specified in NVMe 1.3
TP 4004.  With ANA each namespace attached to a controller belongs to an
ANA group that describes the characteristics of accessing the namespaces
through this controller.  In the optimized and non-optimized states
namespaces can be accessed regularly, although in a multi-pathing
environment we should always prefer to access a namespace through a
controller where an optimized relationship exists.  Namespaces in
Inaccessible, Permanent-Loss or Change state for a given controller
should not be accessed.

The states are updated through reading the ANA log page, which is read
once during controller initialization, whenever the ANA change notice
AEN is received, or when one of the ANA specific status codes that
signal a state change is received on a command.

The ANA state is kept in the nvme_ns structure, which makes the checks in
the fast path very simple.  Updating the ANA state when reading the log
page is also very simple, the only downside is that finding the initial
ANA state when scanning for namespaces is a bit cumbersome.

The gendisk for a ns_head is only registered once a live path for it
exists.  Without that the kernel would hang during partition scanning.

Includes fixes and improvements from Hannes Reinecke.

We can not match a command to its completion based on the command
id alone. We need the submitting queue identifier to pair with the
completion, so this patch adds that to the trace buffer.

This patch is also collapsing the admin and IO submission traces into a
single one so we don't need to duplicate this and creating unnecessary
code branches: we know if the command is an admin vs IO based on the qid.

And since we're here, the patch fixes code formatting in the area.
