[PATCH v4] libnvdimm: fix clear poison locking with spinlock and GFP_NOWAIT allocation

[Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com>]

The following warning results from holding a lane spinlock,
preempt_disable(), or the btt map spinlock and then trying to take the
reconfig_mutex to walk the poison list and potentially add new entries.

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.

A spinlock is introduced to protect the poison list. This allows us to not
having to acquire the reconfig_mutex for touching the poison list. The
add_poison() function has been broken out into two helper functions. One to
allocate the poison entry and the other to apppend the entry. This allows us
to unlock the poison_lock in non-I/O path and continue to be able to allocate
the poison entry with GFP_KERNEL. We will use GFP_NOWAIT in the I/O path in
order to satisfy being in atomic context.
