ublk_drv: add START_USER_RECOVERY and END_USER_RECOVERY support



START_USER_RECOVERY and END_USER_RECOVERY are two new control commands
to support user recovery feature.

After a crash, user should send START_USER_RECOVERY, it will:
(1) check if (a)current ublk_device is UBLK_S_DEV_QUIESCED which was
    set by quiesce_work and (b)chardev is released
(2) reinit all ubqs, including:
    (a) put the task_struct and reset ->ubq_daemon to NULL.
    (b) reset all ublk_io.
(3) reset ub->mm to NULL.

Then, user should start a new process and send FETCH_REQ on each
ubq_daemon.

Finally, user should send END_USER_RECOVERY, it will:
(1) wait for all new ubq_daemons getting ready.
(2) update ublksrv_pid
(3) unquiesce the request queue and expect incoming ublk_queue_rq()
(4) convert ub's state to UBLK_S_DEV_LIVE

Note: we can handle STOP_DEV between START_USER_RECOVERY and
END_USER_RECOVERY. This is helpful to users who cannot start new process
after sending START_USER_RECOVERY ctrl-cmd.
