> NVMe CQs are hardware queues mapped to EFI memory.
> In the NVMExpress Passthru implementations in PEI and DXE,
> it has been observed that NVMe CQs are not marked
> volatile, meaning the compiler has significant leeway
> to optimize accesses to these structures.
>
> This led to an issue where the passthru driver waited
> for a timeout period for an NVMe CQ to mark that it was
> finished with a transaction, but the compiler had
> optimized away the read to the actual HW mapped memory,
> so the transaction had completed but the timeout continued.
>
> Marking the CQs as volatile fixes this issue as the reads
> happen to the actual HW.
