[PATCHv4 5/8] nvme: export I/O requeue count when no path is usable via sysfs

[Nilay Shroff <nilay@linux.ibm.com>]

When the NVMe namespace head determines that there is no currently
available path to handle I/O (for example, while a controller is
resetting/connecting or due to a transient link failure), incoming
I/Os are added to the requeue list.

Currently, there is no visibility into how many I/Os have been requeued
in this situation. Add a new ns-head sysfs counter
io_requeue_no_usable_path_count, under diag attribute group to expose
the number of I/Os that were requeued due to the absence of an available
path. This counter is also writable thus allowing user to reset it, if
needed.

This statistic can help users understand I/O slowdowns or stalls caused
by temporary path unavailability, and can be consumed by monitoring
tools such as nvme-top for real-time observability.
