Public bug reported:

[Impact]

On an Amazon AWS instance that has NVMe drives, the NVMe drives fail to
initialize, and so aren't usable by the system.  If one of the NVMe
drives contains the root filesystem, the instance won't boot.

[Test Case]

Boot an AWS instance with a NVMe drive.  It will fail to initialize the
NVMe drive(s), and errors will appear in the system log (if the system
boots at all).  With a patched kernel, all NVMe drives are initialized
and enumerated and work properly.

[Regression Potential]

Patching the NVMe driver may cause problems on other systems using NVMe
drives.
