nvme-multipath: fix hang when disk goes live over reconnect

[ Upstream commit a4a6f3c8f61c3cfbda4998ad94596059ad7e4332 ]

nvme_mpath_init_identify() invoked from nvme_init_identify() fetches a
fresh ANA log from the ctrl.  This is essential to have an up to date
path states for both existing namespaces and for those scan_work may
discover once the ctrl is up.

This happens in the following cases:
  1) A new ctrl is being connected.
  2) An existing ctrl is successfully reconnected.
  3) An existing ctrl is being reset.

While in (1) ctrl->namespaces is empty, (2 & 3) may have namespaces, and
nvme_read_ana_log() may call nvme_update_ns_ana_state().

This result in a hang when the ANA state of an existing namespace changes
and makes the disk live: nvme_mpath_set_live() issues IO to the namespace
through the ctrl, which does NOT have IO queues yet.

See sample hang below.

Solution:
- nvme_update_ns_ana_state() to call set_live only if ctrl is live
- nvme_read_ana_log() call from nvme_mpath_init_identify()
  therefore only fetches and parses the ANA log;
  any erros in this process will fail the ctrl setup as appropriate;
- a separate function nvme_mpath_update()
  is called in nvme_start_ctrl();
  this parses the ANA log without fetching it.
  At this point the ctrl is live,
  therefore, disks can be set live normally.

Sample failure:
    nvme nvme0: starting error recovery
    nvme nvme0: Reconnecting in 10 seconds...
    block nvme0n6: no usable path - requeuing I/O
