Now that all requests are timed, we are guaranteed to get a completion

command.
This has the effect of simplifying the controller and namespace setup
code, so that it reads straight through rather than broken up into

conditions and plumb this notifier for nvd(4) to destroy the associated
GEOM disks when a failure occurs.
This requires a bit of work to cover the races when a consumer is sending
I/O requests to a controller that is transitioning to the failed state. To
help cover this condition, add a task to defer completion of I/Os submitted
to a failed controller, so that the consumer will still always receive its
completions in a different context than the submission.

The spec indicates the OS driver should use Set Features (Software

after the OS driver has successfully been initialized. This allows
pre-boot software to determine if there have been any issues with the

While aborts are typically cleaner than a full controller reset, many times
an I/O timeout indicates other controller-level issues where aborts may not
work. NVMe drivers for other operating systems are also defaulting to
controller reset rather than aborts for timed out I/O.

On any I/O timeout, check for csts.cfs==1. If set, the controller
is reporting fatal status and we reset the controller immediately,

This changeset also includes deferring the controller start portion
of the reset to a separate task. This ensures we are always performing
a controller start operation from a consistent context.

Controller reset will be performed in cases where I/O are repeatedly
timing out, the controller reports an unrecoverable condition, or
when explicitly requested via IOCTL or an nvme consumer. Since the
controller may be in such a state where it cannot even process queue
deletion requests, we will perform a controller reset without trying
to clean up anything on the controller first.

This change was originally intended to account for test kthreads under
the nvmecontrol process, but jhb indicated it may not be safe to
associate kthreads with userland processes and this could have
unintended consequences.
I did not observe any problems with this change, but my testing didn't
exhaust the kinds of corner cases that could cause problems. It is not
that important to account for these test threads under nvmecontrol, so I
am just reverting this change for now.
On a related note, the part of this patch for <= 7.x fails compilation
so reverting this fixes that too.
