nvme_ctrl_get_by_path() is analagous to blkdev_get_by_path() except it
gets a struct nvme_ctrl from the path to its char dev (/dev/nvme0).
It makes use of filp_open() to open the file and uses the private
data to obtain a pointer to the struct nvme_ctrl. If the fops of the
file do not match, -EINVAL is returned.
The purpose of this function is to support NVMe-OF target passthru.

Logan,
this means that the PT is for nvme-pci and also nvme-fabrics as well.
Is this the intention ? or we want to restrict it to pci only.
