nvme-mpath: fix I/O failure with EAGAIN when failing over I/O
It is possible that the next available path we failover to, happens to be frozen (for example if it is during connection establishment). If the original I/O was set with NOWAIT, this cause the I/O to unnecessarily fail because the request queue cannot be entered, hence the I/O fails with EAGAIN. The NOWAIT restriction that was originally set for the I/O is no longer relevant or needed because this is the nvme requeue context. Hence we clear the REQ_NOWAIT flag when failing over I/O. This fix a simple test case of nvme controller reset during I/O when the multipath device that has only a single path and I/O fails with "Resource temporarily unavailable" errno. Note that this reproduces with io_uring which by default sets IOCB_NOWAIT by default. Signed-off-by:Sagi Grimberg <sagi@grimberg.me> Reviewed-by:
