[PATCH 2/2] NVMe: NULL pointer check for admin queues

[keith.busch@intel.com (Keith Busch)]

Admin commands don't have a namespace, so don't check the state when
there isn't one.

An admin command that does happen to make it to a disabled queue can
failed immediatly: Initialization commands should not be requeued
across resets as they would mess up the controller if/when it is
reinitialized. If a user command made hits this condition, it should
be able to handle this error as that's the existing result for commands
when the controller is reset with outstanding admin commands.
