Re: [PATCH] nvme: add 'fail_if_no_path' sysfs attribute

In some setups like RAID we need to return an I/O error
once all paths are unavailable to allow the upper layers
to start their own error recovery (like redirecting I/O
to other mirrors).
This patch adds a sysfs attribute 'fail_if_no_path' to
allow the admin to enable that behaviour instead of the
current 'queue until a path becomes available' policy.

Sounds okay to me, just some minor nits below.

It doesn't look like the 'fallthru' is in the right place anymore,
though I can't tell why it is there in the first place.

The extra line above the 'else if' should be removed, or just change it
to simply 'if'.
