NVMe: RCU protected access to io queues
This adds rcu protected access to nvme_queue to fix a race between a
surprise removal freeing the queue and a thread with open reference on
a NVMe block device using that queue.
The queues do not need to be rcu protected during the initialization or
shutdown parts, so I've added a helper function for raw deferencing
to get around the sparse errors.
There is still a hole in the IOCTL path for the same problem, which is
fixed in a subsequent patch.
