[PATCH 2/2] nvme-multipath: fix I/O stall when remapping namespaces

[Hannes Reinecke]

During repetitive namespace remapping operations (ie removing a namespace and
provision a different namespace with the same NSID) on the target the
namespace might have changed between the time the initial scan
was performed, and partition scan was invoked by device_add_disk()
in nvme_mpath_set_live(). We then end up with a stuck scanning process:

[<0>] folio_wait_bit_common+0x12a/0x310
[<0>] filemap_read_folio+0x97/0xd0
[<0>] do_read_cache_folio+0x108/0x390
[<0>] read_part_sector+0x31/0xa0
[<0>] read_lba+0xc5/0x160
[<0>] efi_partition+0xd9/0x8f0
[<0>] bdev_disk_changed+0x23d/0x6d0
[<0>] blkdev_get_whole+0x78/0xc0
[<0>] bdev_open+0x2c6/0x3b0
[<0>] bdev_file_open_by_dev+0xcb/0x120
[<0>] disk_scan_partitions+0x5d/0x100
[<0>] device_add_disk+0x402/0x420
[<0>] nvme_mpath_set_live+0x4f/0x1f0 [nvme_core]
[<0>] nvme_mpath_add_disk+0x107/0x120 [nvme_core]
[<0>] nvme_alloc_ns+0xac6/0xe60 [nvme_core]
[<0>] nvme_scan_ns+0x2dd/0x3e0 [nvme_core]
[<0>] nvme_scan_work+0x1a3/0x490 [nvme_core]

This happens when we have several paths, some of which are inaccessible,
and the active paths are removed first. Then nvme_find_path() will requeue
I/O in the ns_head (as paths are present), but the requeue list is never
triggered as all remaining paths are inactive.
This patch checks for NVME_NSHEAD_DISK_LIVE when selecting a path,
and requeue I/O after NVME_NSHEAD_DISK_LIVE has been cleared once
the last path has been removed to properly terminate pending I/O.
