nvme: Remove RCU namespace protection

We can't sleep with RCU read lock held, but we need to do potentially
blocking stuff to namespace queues when iterating the list. This patch
removes the RCU locking and holds a mutex instead.

To prevent deadlocks, this patch removes holding the mutex during
namespace scanning and removal. The unlocked namespace scanning is made
safe by holding a reference to the namespace being scanned.

List iteration that does IO has to be unlocked to allow error recovery.
The caller must ensure the list can not be manipulated during such an
event, so this patch adds a comment explaining this requirement to the
only function that iterates an unlocked list. All callers currently
meet this requirement, so no further changes required.

List iterations that do not do IO can safely use the lock since it couldn't
block recovery from missing forced IO completions.
