[PATCH v5] nvme: multipath: Implemented new iopolicy "queue-depth"

Can we please turn this into a full sentence?  I.e.:

	/*
	 * The queue-depth iopolicy does not need to reference ->current_path,
	 * but the round-robin iopolicy needs the last path used to advance to
	 * the next one, and numa will continue to use the last path unless
	 * it is or has become non-optimized.

Also this is growing into the kind of spaghetti code that is on the fast
path to become unmaintainable.  I'd much rather see the
srcu_dereference + __nvme_find_path duplicated and have a switch over
the iopolicies with a separate helper for each of them here than the
various ifs at different levels.

Overly long line here.

You probably want to take the lock over the iopolicy assignment to
serialize it.  And why do we need the atomic_set here?

Pleae avoid the overly long line here as well.

This does not match the indentation above.
