[PATCH v2] nvme: find numa distance only if controller has valid numa id

On system where native nvme multipath is configured and iopolicy
is set to numa but the nvme controller numa node id is undefined
or -1 (NUMA_NO_NODE) then avoid calculating node distance for
finding optimal io path. In such case we may access numa distance
table with invalid index and that may potentially refer to incorrect
memory. So this patch ensures that if the nvme controller numa node
id is -1 then instead of calculating node distance for finding optimal
io path, we set the numa node distance of such controller to default 10
(LOCAL_DISTANCE).
