nvme-multipath: fix deadlock due to head->lock



In the following scenario scan_work and ana_work will deadlock:

When scan_work calls nvme_mpath_add_disk() this holds ana_lock
and invokes nvme_parse_ana_log(), which may issue IO
in device_add_disk() and hang waiting for an accessible path.

While nvme_mpath_set_live() only called when nvme_state_is_live(),
a transition may cause NVME_SC_ANA_TRANSITION and requeue the IO.

Since nvme_mpath_set_live() holds ns->head->lock, an ana_work on
ANY ctrl will not be able to complete nvme_mpath_set_live()
on the same ns->head, which is required in order to update
the new accessible path and remove NVME_NS_ANA_PENDING..
Therefore IO never completes: deadlock [1].

Fix:
Move device_add_disk out of the head->lock and protect it with an
atomic test_and_set for a new NVME_NS_HEAD_HAS_DISK bit.
