Hello

Gentle ping here, this issue still exists on latest 5.13-rc7

# time nvme reset /dev/nvme0

real 0m12.636s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m0.005s
# time nvme reset /dev/nvme0

real 0m12.641s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.007s

Strange that even normal resets take so long...
What device are you using?

# time nvme reset /dev/nvme0

real 1m16.133s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.007s

There seems to be a spurious command timeout here, but maybe this
is due to the fact that the queues take so long to connect and
the target expires the keep-alive timer.

Does this patch help?
