Subject: [PATCH 4.19 14/43] nvmet: dont check iosqes,iocqes for discovery controllers

From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@...mberg.me>

commit d218a8a3003e84ab136e69a4e30dd4ec7dab2d22 upstream.

>>From the base spec, Figure 78:

  "Controller Configuration, these fields are defined as parameters to
   configure an "I/O Controller (IOC)" and not to configure a "Discovery
   Controller (DC).

   ...
   If the controller does not support I/O queues, then this field shall
   be read-only with a value of 0h

Just perform this check for I/O controllers.

Fixes: a07b4970f464 ("nvmet: add a generic NVMe target")
