[PATCH 2/5] nvme: add new reconnecting controller state

Wed Jul 6 05:55:49 PDT 2016


The nvme fabric (RDMA, FC, etc...) can introduce port, link or node
failures that may require a reconnect to re-establish the connection.

Add a new reconnecting state that will initially be used by the RDMA
driver.
