[PATCH 3/3] nvme: Put invalid namespaces on removal list

[keith.busch@intel.com (Keith Busch)]

This patch puts invalid namespaces on a temporary removal list so they
are not part of the controller's namespace list during their remova tol
allow locked list traversal when scanning for invalid namespaces. This
addresses one of the last unlocked namespace list iterations.

The actual namespace removal runs unlocked on the local removal list. The
invalid namespaces do not need to be on the controller list since removing
them disables the queues from doing IO.
