This code duplicates logic in db_bar_size / nvme_setup_io_queues.
Please reuse the db_bar_size helper by passing 0 to, and try to
figure out if we can factor this whole sequence into a new helper
as well.

Bonus points for adding constants to nvme.h for the 4096 offset of
the first db register, and our magic 8192 threshold.
