- delete_controller: This attribute allows to delete a controller.
  A driver is not obligated to support it (pci doesn't) so it is
  created only if the driver supports it. The new fabrics drivers
  will support it (essentialy a disconnect operation).

  Usage:
  echo > /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/delete_controller

- subsysnqn: This attribute shows the subsystem nqn of the configured
  device. If a driver does not implement the get_subsysnqn method, the
  file will not appear in sysfs.

- transport: This attribute shows the transport name. Added a "name"
  field to struct nvme_ctrl_ops.

  For loop,
  cat /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/transport
  loop

  For RDMA,
  cat /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/transport
  rdma

  For PCIe,
  cat /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/transport
  pcie

- address: This attributes shows the controller address. The fabrics
  drivers that will implement get_address can show the address of the
  connected controller.

  example:
  cat /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/address
  traddr=192.168.2.2,trsvcid=1023
Can you please add this to Documentation/ABI/ as well?
