[PATCH] nvme: pci: Fix NULL dereference when resetting NVMe SSD

While doing IO if I reset NVMe SSD (model :Samsung MZVPV512HDGL-00000)
it doesn't work as expected also results in NULL point dereference and
system becomes unstable.

Device's access is successfully disabled and reset attempt does
successfully complete but restore isn't able to restore NVMe device
properly.  This patch at least makes the system stable.
