nvmet: fix ns enable/disable possible hang
When disabling an nvmet namespace, there is a period where the subsys->lock is released, as the ns disable waits for backend IO to complete, and the ns percpu ref to be properly killed. The original intent was to avoid taking the subsystem lock for a prolong period as other processes may need to acquire it (for example new incoming connections). However, it opens up a window where another process may come in and enable the ns, (re)intiailizing the ns percpu_ref, causing the disable sequence to hang. Solve this by taking the global nvmet_config_sem over the entire configfs enable/disable sequence.
