  * NVMe timeout is too short (LP: #1729119)
    - nvme: update timeout module parameter type

# uname -r
4.10.0-41-generic

I had no nvme drive at my disposal but the following test should suffice :

# lsmod | grep -i nvme

# modprobe nvme_core io_timeout=123456

# lsmod | grep -i nvme
nvme_core 57344 0

# cat /sys/module/nvme_core/parameters/io_timeout
123456

** Note that it doesn't seems to work at runtime (if the module is already loaded). It only works when the module haven't been previously loaded for some reasons **

But I don't see this as a blocker for the current SRU.

root@zesty:~# lsmod | grep -i nvme
nvme_core 57344 0

root@zesty:~# modprobe nvme_core io_timeout=123457

root@zesty:~# cat /sys/module/nvme_core/parameters/io_timeout
123456
