[PATCHv2 0/2] nvme: honor DNR status for authentication

Hi all,

when sending authentication commands we should be checking the DNR bit
in the cqe status to figure out if a command should be retried.
So the first patch will evaluate the DNR bit during _nvme_submit_sync_cmd()
and initiate a retry, and the second patch will set the DNR bit in
the nvme authentication code such that we don't attempt to retry the
'connect' operation.
I have opened pull request #100 for blktests to validate this behaviour.

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.

  nvme-auth: set the DNR bit if authentication failed
