Let's remove unlikely from non datapath routines, its slightly
confusing.

dev_info_ratelimited with queue->ctrl->ctrl.device ?
Also, lets remove __func__. This usually is not very helpful.

EINVAL or ENODEV?

Same here.

Just a general question, why is this needed?

dev_info, and given that it per-queue, please make it dev_dbg.

Maybe nullify in the controller setup intead?

What happens now, fallback to SW? Maybe dev_warn then..
will the SW keep seeing these responses after one failed?

I think it will be better to pass the skb to this func and keep the
pdu_seq contained locally.

A small comment on this manipulation may help the reader.

Here, just pass in (queue, skb)

Can the config initialization move to nvme_tcp_offload_socket?

I'm thinking that instead of this conditional, we want to place
nvme nvme_tcp_alloc_admin_queue in nvme_tcp_alloc_admin_queue, and
also move nvme_tcp_alloc_admin_queue to __nvme_tcp_alloc_io_queues
loop.

Than make it void...

Why not in nvme_tcp_free_queue, symmetric to the alloc?

Why is this needed? I think we want to place this in tcp.c no?
