Previously nvme(4) would revert to a signle I/O queue if it could not
allocate enought interrupt vectors or NVMe submission/completion queues
to have one I/O queue per core. This patch determines how to utilize a
smaller number of available interrupt vectors, and assigns (as closely
as possible) an equal number of cores to each associated I/O queue.

Instead just use num_io_queues to make this determination.
This prepares for some future changes enabling use of multiple
queues when we do not have enough queues or MSI-X vectors
for one queue per CPU.

This prevents repeated notifications of the same event.
Status of these events may be viewed at any time by viewing the
SMART/Health Info Page using nvmecontrol, whether or not asynchronous
events notifications for those events are enabled. This log page can
be viewed using:
nvmecontrol logpage -p 2 <ctrlr id>
Future enhancements may re-enable these notifications on a periodic basis
so that if the notified condition persists, it will continue to be logged.

Also allow admin commands to transfer up to this maximum I/O size, rather
than the artificial limit previously imposed. The larger I/O size is very
beneficial for upcoming firmware download support. This has the added
benefit of simplifying the code since both admin and I/O commands now use
the same maximum I/O size.

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
a bunch of different callback functions.

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.

This flag was originally added to communicate to the sysctl code
which oids should be built, but there are easier ways to do this. This

controller failure.

The controller's IDENTIFY data contains MDTS (Max Data Transfer Size) to
allow the controller to specify the maximum I/O data transfer size. nvme(4)
already provides a default maximum, but make sure it does not exceed what

This protects against cases where a controller crashes with multiple

simultaneously.
While here, remove a debugging printf from a previous commit, and add

reset.

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,
rather than trying to abort the timed out command.
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.
