want nvme namespace management mutex
100%
Description
The nvme driver really should have a namespace management mutex serializing any changes to namespace state. Right now this will only be used for blkdev attach and detach, but at a lite time it will also be required for supporting namespace creation and deletion.
This code was taken from Paul Winders namespace management wad, and it includes a fair bit of refactoring and cleanup of the namespace initialization and attachment.

Testing: Apart from this having been in Tintri's code for a few months now, I have verified that operations changing namespace state still work as expected. Further changes I'm currently still working on depend on this change, so I'm fairly confident it all works as intended.
