nvme: make SG_IO support optional
Translation SCSI commands to NVMe commands is rather pointless in general as applications must not expext to be able to use SCSI commands on a generic block device. Make the huge translation layer optional and hope no one will ever enable it in the future. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
