Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] nvme: adding support for Apple's NVMe controller

Looks fine,

So far I had 2 feedbacks regarding controller resets and data loss using the patch while debootstrapping or using a partition as root file system.
Might be that controller properties exported to userspace are subject to the same issue with 64bit atomic operations like the NVMe module itself.
We will further investigate those problems in our spare time, and of course welcome any suggestions what might cause those issues.
Although I was not able to reproduce the problem so far (there is also a firmware upgrade going on with OSX 10.11.2), I must point out more I did before that using our Apple NVMe patch might cause data loss if being used careless.
