These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining
values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces. For callers that don't
special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or
op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_
values makes more sense. Any check for READA is replaced with an
explicit check for REQ_RAHEAD. Also remove the READA alias for
REQ_RAHEAD.

Currently blkdev_issue_zeroout cascades down from discards (if the driver
guarantees that discards zero data), to WRITE SAME and then to a loop
writing zeroes. Unfortunately we ignore run-time EOPNOTSUPP errors in the
block layer blkdev_issue_discard helper to work around DM volumes that
may have mixed discard support underneath.
This patch intoroduces a new BLKDEV_DISCARD_ZERO flag to
blkdev_issue_discard that indicates we are called for zeroing operation.
This allows both to ignore the EOPNOTSUPP hack and actually consolidating
the discard_zeroes_data check into the function.

Many controller implementations will return errors to commands that will
not succeed, but without the DNR bit set. The driver previously retried
these commands an unlimited number of times until the command timeout
has exceeded, which takes an unnecessarilly long period of time.
This patch limits the number of retries a command can have, defaulting
to 5, but is user tunable at load or runtime.
The struct request's 'retries' field is used to track the number of
retries attempted. This is in contrast with scsi's use of this field,

When disabling the controller, the specification says the register
NVME_REG_CC should be written and then driver needs to wait the
adapter to be ready, which is checked by reading another register
bit (NVME_CSTS_RDY). There's a timeout validation in this checking,
so in case this timeout is reached the driver gives up and removes
the adapter from the system.
After a firmware activation procedure, the PCI_DEVICE(0x1c58, 0x0003)
(HGST adapter) end up being removed if we issue a reset_controller,
because driver keeps verifying the NVME_REG_CSTS until the timeout is
reached. This patch adds a necessary quirk for this adapter, by
introducing a delay before nvme_wait_ready(), so the reset procedure
is able to be completed. This quirk is needed because just increasing
the timeout is not enough in case of this adapter - the driver must
wait before start reading NVME_REG_CSTS register on this specific
device.

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.
