[RFC PATCH 1/5] nvme-pci: add function nvme_submit_vf_cmd to issue admin commands for VF driver.

The new function nvme_submit_vf_cmd() helps the host VF driver to issue
VF admin commands. It's helpful in some cases that the host NVMe driver
does not control VF's admin queue. For example, in the virtualization
device pass-through case, the VF controller's admin queue is governed
by the Guest NVMe driver. Host VF driver relies on PF device's admin
queue to control VF devices like vendor-specific live migration commands.
