Why is it always memcpy() and not memcpy_toio()? I'd expect something like
if (nvmeq->sq_cmds_is_io)
	memcpy_toio(&nvmeq->sq_cmds_io[tail], cmd, sizeof(*cmd));
else
	memcpy(&nvmeq->sq_cmds[tail], cmd, sizeof(*cmd));
We're going on the assumption that memory mapped with 
devm_memremap_pages() can be treated as regular memory. So memcpy_toio 
is not necessary for P2P memory.
