[PATCH] nvme: fix controller removal race with scan work

[Sagi Grimberg]

With multipath enabled, nvme_scan_work() can read from the device
(through nvme_mpath_add_disk()) and hang [1]. However, with fabrics,
once ctrl->state is set to NVME_CTRL_DELETING, the reads will hang
(see nvmf_check_ready()) and the mpath stack device make_request
will block if head->list is not empty. However, when the head->list
consistst of only DELETING/DEAD controllers, we should actually not
block, but rather fail immediately.

In addition, before we go ahead and remove the namespaces, make sure
to clear the current path and kick the requeue list so that the
request will fast fail upon requeuing.

If you try to compile this patch with multipath disabled I think you'll
find this doesn't work seeing 'requeue_work' only exists with
CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH set.

My solution to this is here:
