Upon keep alive completion, nvme_keep_alive_work is scheduled with the
same delay every time. If keep alive commands are completing slowly,
this may cause a keep alive timeout. The following trace illustrates the
issue, taking KATO = 8 and TBKAS off for simplicity:
1. t = 0: run nvme_keep_alive_work, send keep alive
2. t = ε: keep alive reaches controller, controller restarts its keep
alive timer
3. t = 4: host receives keep alive completion, schedules
nvme_keep_alive_work with delay 4
4. t = 8: run nvme_keep_alive_work, send keep alive
Here, a keep alive having RTT of 4 causes a delay of at least 8 - ε
between the controller receiving successive keep alives. With ε small,
the controller is likely to detect a keep alive timeout.
Fix this by calculating the RTT of the keep alive command, and adjusting
the scheduling delay of the next keep alive work accordingly.
