target# grep . /sys/kernel/debug/nvmet/mysubsystem/ctrl1/{ciu,cirn}

I found it useful to export these values while working on this change.
For example the command above can be used to trigger CCR and observe the
target behavior with the expectation that ctrl1 on the target will be
failed.

Added a sentence to the commit message to mention that.

    Export ctrl->ciu and ctrl->cirn as debugfs files under controller
    debugfs directory. The values are useful in matching host controller
    with the corresponding target controller.
