ziaee updated the diff for D55818: nvme: replace bus_space_[read|write]_4 with bus_[read|write]_4.

Attempt to improve whitespace. I'm not sure if I'm understanding @jrtc27's whitespace suggestion but also I've never done this part of it before.

I'm falling behind for this topic. Does this mean starting from pkg 2.5, we don't need pkgbasify? Also what version of FreeBSD support this?
