Well, that was a bit of a mess. Attached is my quick attempt at
combining the two, and reusing the reset code from the ioctl path as
well. One functional change was NOT flushing the work if we don't queue
it in nvme_reset(), the previous code from Keith did that. Otherwise it
should be straight forward.
Please review, I'll hold off on committing this.
