nvme-pci: handle completions outside of the queue lock
Split the completion of events into a two part process: 1) Reap the events inside the queue lock 2) Complete the events outside the queue lock Since we never wrap the queue, we can access it locklessly after we've updated the completion queue head. This patch started off with batching events on the stack, but with this trick we don't have to. Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com> came up with that idea. Note that this kills the ->cqe_seen as well. I haven't been able to trigger any ill effects of this. If we do race with polling every so often, it should be rare enough NOT to trigger any issues.
