nvme: submit internal commands through the block layer
Use block layer queues with an internal cmd_type to submit internally generated NVMe commands. This both simplifies the code a lot and allow for a better structure. For example now the LighNVM code can construct commands without knowing the details of the underlying I/O descriptors. Or a future NVMe over network target could inject commands, as well as could the SCSI translation and ioctl code be reused for such a beast.
