Commit7fd8930f26"nvme: add a common helper to read Identify Controller data" has re-introduced an issue that we have attempted to work around in the past, in commita310acd7a7("NVMe: use split lo_hi_{read,write}q"). The problem is that some PCIe NVMe controllers do not implement 64-bit outbound accesses correctly, which is why the commit above switched to using lo_hi_[read|write]q for all 64-bit BAR accesses occuring in the code. In the mean time, the NVMe subsystem has been refactored, and now calls into the PCIe support layer for NVMe via a .reg_read64() method, which fails to use lo_hi_readq(), and thus reintroduces the problem that the workaround above aimed to address. Given that, at the moment, .reg_read64() is only used to read the capability register [which is known to tolerate split reads], let's switch .reg_read64() to lo_hi_readq() as well. This fixes a boot issue on some ARM boxes with NVMe behind a Synopsys DesignWare PCIe host controller.

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.
