[PATCH v2 2/7] nvme: Skip block device creation for inactive namespaces

At present for each namespace there is a block device created for it.
There is no issue if the number of supported namespaces reported from
the NVMe device is only 1.

Since QEMU commit 7f0f1acedf15 ("hw/block/nvme: support multiple namespaces"),
the number of supported namespaces reported has been changed from 1
to 256, but not all of them are active namespaces. The actual active
one depends on the QEMU command line parameters. A common case is
that namespace 1 being active and all other 255 being inactive.

If a namespace is inactive, the namespace identify command returns a
zero filled data structure. We can use field NSZE (namespace size) to
decide whether a block device should be created for it.
