[PATCH v2] nvme: expand nvmf_check_if_ready checks

The nvmf_check_if_ready() checks that were added are very simplistic.
As such, the routine allows a lot of cases to fail ios during windows
of reset or re-connection. In cases where there are not multi-path
options present, the error goes back to the callee - the filesystem
or application. Not good.

The common routine was rewritten and calling syntax slightly expanded
so that per-transport is_ready routines don't need to be present.
The transports can call the routine directly. The routine now looks
at controller state to decide the action to take. Some states mandate
io failure. Others define the condition where a command can be accepted.
When the decision is unclear, a generic queue-or-reject check is made
to look for failfast or multipath ios and only fails the io if it is
so marked. Otherwise, the io will be queued and wait for the controller
state to resolve.
