nvme: mask CSE effects for security receive
The nvme driver will freeze the IO queues in response to an admin command with CSE bits set. These bits notify the host that the command that's about to be executed needs to be done exclusively, hence the freeze. The Security Receive command is often reported by multiple vendors with CSE bits set. The reason for this is that the result depends on the previous Security Send. This has nothing to do with IO queues, though, so the driver is taking an overly cautious response to seeing this passthrough command, while unable to fufill the intended admin queue action. Rather than freeze IO during this harmless command, mask off the effects. This freezing is observed to cause IO latency spikes when host software periodically validates the security state of the drives.
