Subject: nvme-fabrics: protect against module unload during create_ctrl

From: Roy Shterman <roys@lightbitslabs.com>


[ Upstream commit 0de5cd367c6aa2a31a1c931628f778f79f8ef22e ]

NVMe transport driver module unload may (and usually does) trigger
iteration over the active controllers and delete them all (sometimes
under a mutex).  However, a controller can be created concurrently with
module unload which can lead to leakage of resources (most important char
device node leakage) in case the controller creation occured after the
unload delete and drain sequence.  To protect against this, we take a
module reference to guarantee that the nvme transport driver is not
unloaded while creating a controller.
