dm mpath: remove unnecessary NVMe branching in favor of scsi_dh checks
This eliminates the "queue_mode" configuration's "nvme" mode. There wasn't anything NVMe-specific about that mode. It was named "nvme" because it was a short name for the mode. But the entire point of the mode was to optimize the multipath target for underlying devices that are _not_ SCSI-based. Devices that aren't SCSI have no need for the various SCSI device handler (scsi_dh) specific code in DM multipath. But rather than narrowly define this scsi_dh vs not branching in terms of "nvme": invert the logic so that we're just checking whether a multipath device is layered on SCSI devices with scsi_dh attached. This allows any future storage technology to avoid scsi_dh specific code in the multipath target too. Fixes: 848b8aefd4 ("dm mpath: optimize NVMe bio-based support") Suggested-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
