Subject: [PATCH v10 04/11] nvme: sysfs: emit the marginal path state in show_state()

From: Bryan Gurney <bgurney@...hat.com>

If a controller has received a link integrity or congestion event, and
has the NVME_CTRL_MARGINAL flag set, emit "marginal" in the state
instead of "live", to identify the marginal paths.
