commit bb642e2

For queue-depth I/O policy, this patch fixes unbalanced I/Os across
nvme multipaths.

Issue Description:

The RETRY disposition incorrectly increments ns->ctrl->nr_active
counter and reinitializes iostat start-time. In such cases nr_active
counter never goes back to zero until that path disconnects and
reconnects.

Such a path is not chosen for new I/Os if multiple RETRY cases on a given
a path cause its queue-depth counter to be artificially higher compared
to other paths. This leads to unbalanced I/Os across paths.

The patch skips incrementing nr_active if NVME_MPATH_CNT_ACTIVE is already
set. And it skips restarting io stats if NVME_MPATH_IO_STATS is already set.
