[PATCH 5/7] nvme: export I/O failure count when no path is available via sysfs

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

When I/O is submitted to the NVMe namespace head and no available path
can handle the request, the driver fails the I/O immediately. Currently,
such failures are only reported via kernel log messages, which may be
lost over time since dmesg is a circular buffer.

Add a new sysfs counter, fail_no_available_path, to expose the number of
I/Os that failed due to the absence of an available path. This provides
persistent visibility into path-related I/O failures and can help users
diagnose the cause of I/O errors.

This counter can also be consumed by monitoring tools such as nvme-top.
