Fiona Ebner 668c15043f Revert "Fix #2020: use /sys to map nvmeXnY to nvmeX"
This reverts commit c3442aa5546b029a524928d10c7ecabe0024c137.

Nowadays, relying on 'readlink /sys/block/nvmeXnY/device' won't always
lead to the correct device, as reported in the community forum[0],
where it results in '../../nvme-subsys0' and there's no matching entry
under '/dev/'.

Since Linux kernel 5.4, in particular commit 733e4b69d508 ("nvme:
Assign subsys instance from first ctrl"), the problematic situation
from bug #2020 shouldn't happen anymore.

Stated more clearly by the commit's author here[1]:

The only other user of get_sysdir_info() doesn't use the 'device'
entry, so reverting that part is fine too.
