Jianchao Wang 2b1b7e784a nvme-pci: fix NULL pointer reference in nvme_alloc_ns
When the io queues setup or tagset allocation failed, ctrl.tagset is
NULL.  But the scan work will still be queued and executed, then panic
comes up due to NULL pointer reference of ctrl.tagset.

To fix this, add a new ctrl state NVME_CTRL_ADMIN_ONLY to inidcate only
admin queue is live. When non io queues or tagset allocation failed, ctrl
enters into this state, scan work will not be started.  But async event
work and nvme dev ioctl will be still available.  This will be helpful to
do further investigation and recovery.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
