Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] nvme: add the NVME_ENABLE_MULTIPATH_PARAM config option

The CONFIG_NVME_ENABLE_MULTIPATH_PARAM option controls the
core_nvme.multipath parameter. When CONFIG_NVME_ENABLE_MULTIPATH_PARAM=n
the multipath parameter is removed from the kernel and nvme multipathing
is permanently enabled.  When CONFIG_NVME_ENABLE_MULTIPATH_PARAM=y the
nvme multipath parameter is added to the kernel and nvme multipath
support is controlled by the core_nvme.multipath parameter.

By default CONFIG_NVME_ENABLE_MULTIPATH_PARAM=y
