[PATCH 01/15] nvme: update nvme_passthru_end() signature

Change nvme_passthru_end() to return the command effects value passed
to it.

This is a preparatory change for Clang's context/thread-safety analysis
support. The conditional release annotations (__cond_releases()) model
lock release based on a function's return value. Returning the existing
effects value allows a subsequent patch to annotate nvme_passthru_end()
as conditionally releasing locks acquired by nvme_passthru_start().

No functional change intended.

A follow-up patch will add the corresponding context analysis
annotations.
