[PATCH] nvme: fix reconnection fail due to reserved tag allocation

["brookxu.cn" <brookxu.cn@gmail.com>]

From: Chunguang Xu <chunguang.xu@shopee.com>

We found a issue on production environment while using NVMe
over RDMA, admin_q reconnect failed forever while remote
target and network is ok. After dig into it, we found it
may caused by a ABBA deadlock due to tag allocation. In my
case, the tag was hold by a keep alive request waiting
inside admin_q, as we quiesced admin_q while reset ctrl,
so the request maked as idle and will not process before
reset success. As fabric_q shares tagset with admin_q,
while reconnect remote target, we need a tag for connect
command, but the only one reserved tag was held by keep
alive command which waiting inside admin_q. As a result,
we failed to reconnect admin_q forever.

In order to workaround this issue, I think we should not
retry keep alive request while controller reconnecting,
as we have stopped keep alive while resetting controller,
and will start it again while init finish, so it maybe ok
to drop it.
