nvme: Don't use a stack buffer for keep-alive command
In nvme_keep_alive() we pass a request with a pointer to an NVMe command on the stack into blk_execute_rq_nowait(). However, the block layer doesn't guarantee that the request is fully queued before blk_execute_rq_nowait() returns. If not, and the request is queued after nvme_keep_alive() returns, then we'll end up using stack memory that might have been overwritten to form the NVMe command we pass to hardware. Fix this by keeping a special command struct in the nvme_ctrl struct right next to the delayed work struct used for keep-alives.
