Hi all,

To make it easy to use, this two patches add the support to set/get the
properties for NVMe over Fabric. 

Patch 1/2  makes use of show-regs option which only supports PCIe previously
to support NVMf.
Patch 2/2  adds new option named set-property to support setting the property 
of NVMf. IMO, it is the responsibility of kernel to try to avoid malicious
operation such as setting NRSS from the user space. So I ignore this in
the nvme-cli.

Welcome any comments.

Thanks

Changes since V1:
* return nagative -EINVAL and set errno to distinguish positive NVMe error status code (Minwoo)
* remove uncecessary initialization for local variable _is64bit_ (Minwoo)
* rebase on latest master
