Doesn't that mean that the initialization should happen in nvme_start_ctrl()
and not here ?

Either case, good point. Reason for calling the init function from here
is that I wanted to ensure that it is called after controller
identification. But then it is really undesirable to re-instantiate
the driver on each device reset. I'll have to think about that.

Good point. This needs either local memory like in your patch, or
I'll need a lock. I prefer a lock, though I am open to suggestions.

Another good point.
