libnvdimm/bus: Fix wait_nvdimm_bus_probe_idle() ABBA deadlock
A multithreaded namespace creation/destruction stress test currently deadlocks with the following lockup signature: INFO: task ndctl:2924 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

Meanwhile, another thread is trying to update the uuid property of that same backing namespace. So one thread is in the probe path trying to acquire the lock, and the other thread has acquired the lock and tries to flush the probe path. Fix this deadlock by not holding the namespace device_lock over the wait_nvdimm_bus_probe_idle() synchronization step. In turn this requires the device_lock to be held on entry to wait_nvdimm_bus_probe_idle() and subsequently dropped internally to wait_nvdimm_bus_probe_idle().
