nvme-cli format timeout

[paul.grabinar@ranbarg.com (Paul Grabinar)]

Hi,

I am aware of some NVMe drives that take well over 60 seconds to perform
a format and therefore timeout during the format command issued by nvme-cli.

We might want to consider increasing the timeout. The following patch is
an example to show what I mean.

Thanks.
