lightnvm: remove nested lock conflict with mm If a media manager tries to initialize it targets upon media manager initialization, the media manager will need to know which target types are available in LightNVM. The lists of which managers and target types are available shares the same lock. Therefore, on initialization, the nvm_lock is taken by LightNVM core, which later leads to a deadlock when target types are enumerated by the media manager. Add an exclusive lock for target types to resolve this conflict. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
