nvme-rdma: fix possible hang when failing to set io queues
[ Upstream commit c4c6df5fc84659690d4391d1fba155cd94185295 ]
We only setup io queues for nvme controllers, and it makes absolutely no
sense to allow a controller (re)connect without any I/O queues. If we
happen to fail setting the queue count for any reason, we should not allow
this to be a successful reconnect as I/O has no chance in going through.
Instead just fail and schedule another reconnect.
