[PATCHv4-4.5 6/7] NVMe: Don't allow unsupported flags

[Keith Busch]

The command flags can change the meaning of other fields in the command
that the driver is not prepared to handle. Specifically, the user could
passthrough an SGL flag, causing the controller to misinterpret the PRP
list the driver created, potentially corrupting memory or data.

>From previous version:

  Return an error if the user requested an unsupported flag.
