As far I remember, Christoph is not a big fan of single users of tiny
helper functions. Anyway, what about this:

+static bool nvme_num_queue_updated(status)
+{
+ /*
+ * It's either a kernel error or the host observed a connection

+ * controller and thus enter the error code path.

+ if (status < 0 || status & NVME_STATUS_DNR ||
+ status == NVME_SC_HOST_PATH_ERROR)
+ return false;
+
+ return true;
+}
+

{
u32 q_count = (*count - 1) | ((*count - 1) << 16);
