DESCRIPTION

       Send a customized NVMe Admin command request message and get  the  corresponding  response
       message.

       This  interface supports no data, host to controller and controller to host but it doesn't
       support bidirectional data transfer.  Also this interface only supports data transfer size
       range [0, 4096] (bytes) so the & data_len parameter must be less than 4097.

RETURN

       The nvme command status if a response was received (see enum nvme_status_field) or -1 with
       errno set otherwise.
