Alexey Dobriyan a8de663916 nvme-pci: fix "slimmer CQ head update"
Pre-incrementing ->cq_head can't be done in memory because OOB value
can be observed by another context.

This devalues space savings compared to original code :-\

	$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-000 ../obj/vmlinux
	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-32 (-32)
	Function                                     old     new   delta
	nvme_poll_irqdisable                         464     456      -8
	nvme_poll                                    455     447      -8
	nvme_irq                                     388     380      -8
	nvme_dev_disable                             955     947      -8

But the code is minimal now: one read for head, one read for q_depth,
one increment, one comparison, single instruction phase bit update and
one write for new head.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
