[PATCH 1/9] nvme: don't hold nvmf_transports_rwsem for more than transport lookups

[hch@lst.de (Christoph Hellwig)]

From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@suse.de>

Only take nvmf_transports_rwsem when doing a lookup of registered
transports, so that a blocking ->create_ctrl doesn't prevent other
actions on /dev/nvme-fabrics.

[hch: increased lock hold time a bit to be safe, added a comment
 and updated the changelog]
