    nvme: handle the persistent internal error AER · 2c61c97f
    Michael Kelley authored
    In the NVM Express Revision 1.4 spec, Figure 145 describes possible
    values for an AER with event type "Error" (value 000b). For a
    Persistent Internal Error (value 03h), the host should perform a
    controller reset.
    
    Add support for this error using code that already exists for
    doing a controller reset. As part of this support, introduce
    two utility functions for parsing the AER type and subtype.
    
    This new support was tested in a lab environment where we can
    generate the persistent internal error on demand, and observe
    both the Linux side and NVMe controller side to see that the
    controller reset has been done.
