NVMe: Allow user initiated rescan
This exposes ioctl and sysfs methods a user can invoke to request the driver rescan a controller and its namespaces. This is less harsh than doing a controller reset, which temporarilly halts all IO, just to surface a newly attached namespace. This is mainly useful for controllers that implement the namespace management command, but do not support the namespace notify change asynchronous event notification.
