When triggering a rescan due to a namespace resize we will be
receiving AENs on every controller, triggering a rescan of all
attached namespaces. If multipath is active only the current path and
the ns_head disk will be updated, the other paths will still refer to
the old size until AENs for the remaining controllers are received.
If I/O comes in before that it might be routed to one of the old
paths, triggering an I/O failure with 'access beyond end of device'.
With this patch the old paths are skipped from multipath path
selection until the controller serving these paths has been rescanned.

[dwagner: - introduce NVME_NS_READY flag instead of NVME_NS_INVALIDATE
- use 'revalidate' instead of 'invalidate' which
follows the zoned device code path.
- clear NVME_NS_READY before clearing current_path]

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.
