4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx> commit 2e7f5d2af2155084c6f7c86328d36e698cd84954 upstream. The NVMe specification defines the serial number as: "Serial Number (SN): Contains the serial number for the NVM subsystem that is assigned by the vendor as an ASCII string. Refer to section 7.10 for unique identifier requirements. Refer to section 1.5 for ASCII string requirements" So move it from the controller to the subsystem, where it belongs.
