James Smart 2b632970da nvme-fc: add dev_loss_tmo timeout and remoteport resume support
When a remoteport is unregistered (connectivity lost), the following
actions are taken:

 - the remoteport is marked DELETED
 - the time when dev_loss_tmo would expire is set in the remoteport
 - all controllers on the remoteport are reset.

After a controller resets, it will stall in a RECONNECTING state waiting
for one of the following:

 - the controller will continue to attempt reconnect per max_retries and
   reconnect_delay.  As no remoteport connectivity, the reconnect attempt
   will immediately fail.  If max reconnects has not been reached, a new
   reconnect_delay timer will be schedule.  If the current time plus
   another reconnect_delay exceeds when dev_loss_tmo expires on the remote
   port, then the reconnect_delay will be shortend to schedule no later
   than when dev_loss_tmo expires.  If max reconnect attempts are reached
   (e.g. ctrl_loss_tmo reached) or dev_loss_tmo ix exceeded without
   connectivity, the controller is deleted.
 - the remoteport is re-registered prior to dev_loss_tmo expiring.
   The resume of the remoteport will immediately attempt to reconnect
   each of its suspended controllers.

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.
