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.
