[RFC] nvme: Do not reject dynamic controller cntlid

[Daniel Wagner]

The NVME spec states in 3.1.1 Controller Model there are two types
controllers: dynamic and static.

The nvme_validate_cntlid() check ensures that the newly discovered
controller does not have the same cntlid as a known controller. For
the dynamic controller model this check doesn't make sense as all
cntlid will be 0xffff. In this case ignore this check.

I got a bug report with this:

 nvme nvme10: pci function 0000:00:19.0
 nvme 0000:00:19.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
 nvme nvme10: Duplicate cntlid 65535 with nvme7, rejecting
 nvme nvme10: Removing after probe failure status: -22

>From reading the spec I got the impression that it should be enough to
ignore the cntlid check if the cntlid is 0xffff. Though I might be
completely wrong here.
