[PATCH] nvme: disallow passthru cmd from targeting a nsid != nsid of the block dev

From: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel at wdc.com>

When a passthru command targets a specific namespace, the ns parameter to
nvme_user_cmd()/nvme_user_cmd64() is set. However, there is currently no
validation that the nsid specified in the passthru command targets the
namespace/nsid represented by the block device that the ioctl was
performed on.

Add a check that validates that the nsid in the passthru command matches
that of the supplied namespace.

Currently, if doing NVME_IOCTL_IO_CMD on the controller char device,
if and only if there is a single namespace in the ctrl->namespaces list,
nvme_dev_user_cmd() will call nvme_user_cmd() with ns parameter set.
While it might be good that we validate the nsid even in this case,
perhaps we want to allow a nsid value in the passthru command to be
0x0 and/or the NSID broadcast value? (Only when NVME_IOCTL_IO_CMD was
done on the controller char device though.)
