Re: [RFC PATCH] super-intel: correctly recognize NVMe device during assemble

From: Tkaczyk, Mariusz <hidden>

Hello,
Thanks for the patch but we sent similar solution recently, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-raid/20210115152824.51793-1-
oleksandr.shchirskyi@intel.com/
For namespaces exposed via nvme-subsystem, autorebuild scenarios won't
work because /dev/disk/by-path link doesn't exist.

Our patch fixes mdadm --detail-platform output additionally, this part is
missed here.

We had a customer report the following error while assembling the raid
device, which is created from Intel VMD configuration of RBSU(bios).

mdadm: /dev/nvme0n1 is not attached to Intel(R) RAID controller.
mdadm: No OROM/EFI properties for /dev/nvme0n1
mdadm: no RAID superblock on /dev/nvme0n1

It's because in function path_attached_to_hba(), the string of disk
doesn't match hba and thus it fails to be recognized as a valid device.
The following is the debug output with this patch applied.
mdadm: hba: /sys/devices/pci0000:c0/0000:c0:00.5/pci10002:00 - disk:
/sys/devices/virtual/nvme-subsystem/nvme-subsys0
mdadm: NVME:tmp_path:
/sys/devices/virtual/nvme-subsystem/nvme-subsys0/nvme0
mdadm: NVME:tmp_path:
/sys/devices/virtual/nvme-subsystem/nvme-subsys0/nvme0 - real_disk_path:
/sys/devices/pci0000:c0/0000:c0:00.5/pci10002:00/10002:00:04.0/10002:03:00.0/nvme/nvme0
