Security locked drives may reject "set feature". Some of my drives in
manufacturing mode also fail it.
I think the driver is doing the right thing after every CC.EN transition
and before IO queue creation. The spec wording sounds odd, but it wouldn't
make sense if you're not allowed to change for a reset or resume. That's
pretty much the same scenario when the driver initially probes it:
we don't know what state UEFI left it.
I'll send a new revision that makes nvme_dev_shutdown reentrant so we
don't need the awkward "queue_work + flush_work".
