Kai-Heng Feng 5611ec2b98 nvme-pci: prevent SK hynix PC400 from using Write Zeroes command
After commit 6e02318eae ("nvme: add support for the Write Zeroes
command"), SK hynix PC400 becomes very slow with the following error
message:

[  224.567695] blk_update_request: operation not supported error, dev nvme1n1, sector 499384320 op 0x9:(WRITE_ZEROES) flags 0x1000000 phys_seg 0 prio class 0]

SK Hynix PC400 has a buggy firmware that treats NLB as max value instead
of a range, so the NLB passed isn't a valid value to the firmware.

According to SK hynix there are three commands are affected:
- Write Zeroes
- Compare
- Write Uncorrectable

Right now only Write Zeroes is implemented, so disable it completely on
SK hynix PC400.

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.
