The six callers of nvmet_find_namespace() duplicate the error log page
update and status setting code for each call on failure.

All callers are nvmet requests based functions, so we can pass req
to the nvmet_find_namesapce() & derive ctrl from req, that'll allow us
to update the error log page in nvmet_find_namespace(). Now that we
pass the request we can also get rid of the local variable in
nvmet_find_namespace() and use the req->ns and return the error code.

Replace the ctrl parameter with nvmet_req for nvmet_find_namespace(),
centralize the error log page update for non allocated namesapces, and
return uniform error for non-allocated namespace.

The nvmet_find_namespace() takes nsid parameter which is from NVMe
commands structures such as get_log_page, identify, rw and common. All
these commands have same offset for the nsid field.

Derive nsid from req->cmd->common.nsid) & remove the extra parameter
from the nvmet_find_namespace().

Lastly now we associate the ns to the req parameter that we pass to the
nvmet_find_namespace(), rename nvmet_find_namespace() to
nvmet_req_find_ns().

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.
