[PATCH V2 2/2] nvme-multipath: enable PCI P2PDMA for multipath devices

From: Kiran Kumar Modukuri <kmodukuri at nvidia.com>
NVMe multipath does not expose BLK_FEAT_PCI_P2PDMA on the head disk
even when the underlying controller supports it.
Set BLK_FEAT_PCI_P2PDMA in nvme_mpath_alloc_disk() when the controller
advertises P2PDMA support via ctrl->ops->supports_pci_p2pdma.
Since multipath can match paths across different transports (e.g. PCIe
and FC), not all paths are guaranteed to support P2PDMA. Clear
BLK_FEAT_PCI_P2PDMA from the head disk in nvme_mpath_add_disk() if the
newly added path does not support it, ensuring the feature is only
advertised when every member supports it.
