While very useful by itself, it also makes `nvmecontrol` not depend on
hardcoded device names parsing, that in its turn makes simple to take
nvdX (and potentially any other) device names as arguments.
Also added IOCTL bypass from nvdX to respective nvmeYnsZ makes them

The timeout field in the CAPS register is defined to be 8 bits, so its type was
uint8_t. We recently started adding 1 to it to cope with rogue devices that
listed 0 timeout time (which is impossible). However, in so doing, other devices
that list 0xff (for a 2 minute timeout) were broken when adding 1
overflowed. Widen the type to be uint32_t like its source register to avoid the
issue.

While we print failure messages on the console, sometimes logs are lost or
overwhelmed. Keeping a count of how many times we've failed retriable commands
helps get a magnitude of the problem.
Retried commands can indicate a performance degredation of an nvme drive. Keep
track of the number of retries and report it out via sysctl, just like number of
commands an interrupts.
Also convert it to a bool. While the rest of the driver isn't yet bool clean,
this will help.

The nvme drive dumps only the most relevant details about a command when it
fails. However, there are times this is not sufficient (such as debugging weird
issues for a new drive with a vendor). Setting hw.nvme.verbose_cmd_dump=1

command that fails.

Neither the 1.3 or 1.4 standards say this number is 1's based, but adding 1

cheaply. This is consistent with what the Linux driver does as well.

o In vm_pager_bufferinit() create pbuf_zone and start accounting on how many
pbufs are we going to have set.
In various subsystems that are going to utilize pbufs create private zones
via call to pbuf_zsecond_create(). The latter calls uma_zsecond_create(),
and sets a limit on created zone. After startup preallocate pbufs according
to requirements of all pbuf zones.
Subsystems that used to have a private limit with old allocator now have
private pbuf zones: md(4), fusefs, NFS client, smbfs, VFS cluster, FFS,
swap, vnode pager.
The following subsystems use shared pbuf zone: cam(4), nvme(4), physio(9),
aio(4). They should have their private limits, but changing that is out of
scope of this commit.
o Fetch tunable value of kern.nswbuf from init_param2() and while here move
NSWBUF_MIN to opt_param.h and eliminate opt_swap.h, that was holding only
this option.
Default values aren't touched by this commit, but they probably should be
reviewed wrt to modern hardware.
This change removes a tight bottleneck from sendfile(2) operation, that
uses pbufs in vnode pager. Other pagers also would benefit from faster
allocation.

The original NVMe API used bit-fields to represent fields in data
structures defined by the specification (e.g. the op-code in the command
data structure). The implementation targeted x86_64 processors and
defined the bit fields for little endian dwords (i.e. 32 bits).
This approach does not work as-is for big endian architectures and was
changed to use a combination of bit shifts and masks to support PowerPC.
Unfortunately, this changed the NVMe API and forces #ifdef's based on
the OS revision level in user space code.
This change reverts to something that looks like the original API, but
it uses bytes instead of bit-fields inside the packed command structure.
As a bonus, this works as-is for both big and little endian CPU
architectures.

Summary:
Some architectures, in this case powerpc64, need explicit synchronization
barriers vs device accesses.
Prior to this change, when running 'make buildworld -j72' on a 18-core
(72-thread) POWER9, I would see controller resets often. With this change, I
don't see these resets messages, though another tester still does, for yet to be
determined reasons, so this may not be a complete fix. Additionally, I see a
~5-10% speed up in buildworld times, likely due to not needing to reset the
controller.

device structures to set pointers on controller and namespace data.
Instead make NVMe XPT probe fetch the data directly from hardware.
- Cleanup NVMe SIM code, fixing support for multiple namespaces per
controller (reporting them as LUNs) and adding controller detach support
and run-time namespace change notifications.
- Add initial support for namespace change async events. So far only
in CAM mode, but it allows run-time namespace arrival and departure.
- Add missing nvme_notify_fail_consumers() call on controller detach.
Together with previous changes this allows NVMe device detach/unplug.
Non-CAM mode still requires a lot of love to stay on par, but at least
CAM mode code should not stay in the way so much, becoming much more
self-sufficient.

On some systems, we're getting timeouts when we use multiple queues on
drives that work perfectly well on other systems. On a hunch, Jim
Harris suggested I poll the completion queue when we get a timeout.
This patch polls the completion queue if no fatal status was
indicated. If it had pending I/O, we complete that request and
return. Otherwise, if aborts are enabled and no fatal status, we abort
the command and return. Otherwise we reset the card.
This may clear up the problem, or we may see it result in lots of
timeouts and a performance problem. Either way, we'll know the next
step. We may also need to pay attention to the fatal status bit
of the controller.

The NVME standard has required in section 7.2.6, since at least 1.1,
that a clean shutdown is signalled by deleting the subission and the
completion queues before setting the shutdown bit in CC. The 1.0
standard, apparently, did not and many of the early Intel cards didn't
care. Some newer cards care, at least one whose beta firmware can
scramble the card on an unclean shutdown. Linux has done this for some
time. To make it possible to move forward with an evaluation of this
pre-release card with wonky firmware, delete the queues on the card
when we delete the qpair structures.
