Commit 1b1031ca63b2 ("nvme: validate cntlid during controller initialisation")
introduced a validation for controllers with duplicate cntlid that runs
on nvme_init_subsystem(). The problem is that the validation relies on
ctrl->cntlid, and this value is assigned (from id_ctrl value) after the
call for nvme_init_subsystem() in nvme_init_identify() for non-fabrics
scenario. That leads to ctrl->cntlid always being 0 in case we have a
physical set of controllers in the same subsystem.
This patch fixes that by loading the discovered cntlid id_ctrl value into
ctrl->cntlid before the subsystem initialization, only for the non-fabrics
case. The patch was tested with emulated nvme devices (qemu) having two
controllers in a single subsystem. Without the patch, we couldn't make
it work failing in the duplicate check; when running with the patch, we
could see the subsystem holding both controllers.
For the fabrics case we see ctrl->cntlid has a more intricate relation
with the admin connect, so we didn't change that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
