nvme_cancel_request() is not setting this flag to cancelled and this is causing
__nvme_submit_sync_cmd() to return a positive number and eventually
this will allow nvme_init_identify() proceed with a timeout error where the
problematic nvme device has already been disabled by nvme_dev_disable(dev,true).
The reset of the logic in nvme_init_identify() is not going to check
those already
released resources. -- in fact this is UAF --

what would you like to suggest here?
