Subject: [Revert] Re: Possible nvme regression in 6.4.11

This regression affects all copies of the Dell XPS 15 9560 and Dell Precision
5520 with any SSD including aftermarket ones.

Per the bugzilla discussion here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217802 this regression has
been confirmed to also affect 6.5.2 and 6.6-rc1, and affects several
distros.

Known affected branches: 6.1, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6.

It has already been reverted by OpenSUSE and is soon to be reverted in
NixOS. A patch follows, hopefully with the right metadata tags.

I have compiled a kernel 6.1 with the revert and confirmed it now boots
again.

p.s. this is my first time pointing git-send-email at this particular
list, so I'm sorry if I got anything wrong.
