[PATCHv4] nvme: allow to re-attach namespaces after all paths are down

[Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>]

We should only remove the ns head from the list of heads per
subsystem if the reference count drops to zero. Removing it
at the start of nvme_ns_remove() will prevent us from reattaching
the namespace to the correct ns head once a path becomes available
again.

Changes to v3:
- Simplify if() clause to detect duplicate namespaces
Changes to v2:
- Drop memcpy() statement
Changes to v1:
- Always check NSIDs after reattach
