[PATCH] NVMe: limit max completion iterations in nvme_process_cq()

[Jens Axboe]

This is an unbounded loop. If we have per-cpu queues this is
usually not a problem, but if CPUs share a queue, then we could
have some of them continually queueing IO and the loop could take
forever to exit.

Limit max iterations to the queue depth of the given completion
queue, which seems like a nice number to use.
