This should have been an inline if added at all, and use proper
formatting, as well as avoiding the shift obsfucation.

I think the best is to just move this into the only caller, where
we also know that ctrl->kato can't be 0 due to the check in
nvme_start_keep_alive:

/*
  * Recommended frequency for KATO commands per  NVMe 1.4 section 7.12.1:
  *
  *     The host should send Keep Alive commands at half of the
  *     Keep Alive Timeout accounting for transport roundtrip times [..].
*/
static inline void nvme_queue_keep_alive_work(struct nvme_ctrl *ctrl)
{
	queue_delayed_work(nvme_wq, &ctrl->ka_work, ctrl->kato * HZ / 2);
}

Also please keep this helper inside of core.c.
Agreed.
