nvme-multipath: Add visibility for queue-depth io-policy

Browse Source 
This patch helps add nvme native multipath visibility for queue-depth
io-policy. It adds a new attribute file named "queue_depth" under
namespace device path node which would print the number of active/
in-flight I/O requests currently queued for the given path.

For instance, if we have a shared namespace accessible from two different
controllers/paths then accessing head block node of the shared namespace
would show the following output:

$ ls -l /sys/block/nvme1n1/multipath/
nvme1c1n1 -> ../../../../../pci052e:78/052e:78:00.0/nvme/nvme1/nvme1c1n1
nvme1c3n1 -> ../../../../../pci058e:78/058e:78:00.0/nvme/nvme3/nvme1c3n1

In the above example, nvme1n1 is head gendisk node created for a shared
namespace and the namespace is accessible from nvme1c1n1 and nvme1c3n1
paths. For queue-depth io-policy we can then refer the "queue_depth"
attribute file created under each namespace path:

$ cat /sys/block/nvme1n1/multipath/nvme1c1n1/queue_depth
518

$cat /sys/block/nvme1n1/multipath/nvme1c3n1/queue_depth
504

>From the above output, we can infer that I/O workload targeted at nvme1n1
uses two paths nvme1c1n1 and nvme1c3n1 and the current queue depth of each
path is 518 and 504 respectively. Reading "queue_depth" file when
configured io-policy is anything but queue-depth would show no output.
