[PATCH] nvme-pci: fix the timeout case when reset is ongoing

NVME_CTRL_RESETTING used to indicate the range of nvme initializing
strictly in fd634f41(nvme: merge probe_work and reset_work), but it
is not now. The NVME_CTRL_RESETTING is set before queue the
reset_work, there could be a big gap before the reset work handles
the outstanding requests. So when the NVME_CTRL_RESETTING is set,
nvme_timeout will not only meet the admin requests from the
initializing procedure, but also the IO and admin requests from
previous work before nvme_dev_disable is invoked.

To fix it, introduce a flag NVME_DEV_FLAG_INITIALIZING to mark the
range of initializing. When this flag is not set, handle the expried
requests as nvme_cancel_request. Otherwise, the requests should be
from the initializing procedure. Handle them as before. Because the
nvme_reset_work will see the error and disable the dev itself, so
discard the nvme_dev_disable here.
