lightnvm: pblk: stop recreating global caches
Pblk should not create a set of global caches every time a pblk instance is created. The global caches should be made available only when there is one or more pblk instances. This patch bundles the global caches together with a kref keeping track of whether the caches should be available or not. Also, turn the global pblk lock into a mutex that explicitly protects the caches (as this was the only purpose of the lock).
