Can you factor these checks into a helper that your loop checks in
the while statement?

So we don't do anything with the log.  It might be worth having a comment
like:

	/* read the firmware activation log to clear the AER */

for readers of the code that don't know the NVMe spec inside out.

Please split this code into a helper.
