Most NVME devcies maintain data in internal cache for an uncertain times, and u-boot has no method to force NVME to flush cache. So this patch adds FUA to avoid data loss caused by power off after data programming.

The dev->vwc field only indicates the presence of the Volatile Write Cache, but not the enable status of it.
