[PATCH v2 26/30] cxlflash: Fix to prevent EEH recovery failure

["Matthew R. Ochs" <mrochs@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

The process_sense() routine can perform a read capacity which
can take some time to complete. If an EEH occurs while waiting
on the read capacity, the EEH handler is unable to obtain the
context's mutex in order to put the context in an error state.
The EEH handler will sit and wait until the context is free,
but this wait can last longer than the EEH handler tolerates,
leading to a failed recovery.

To address this issue, make the context unavailable to new,
non-system owned threads and release the context while calling
into process_sense(). After returning from process_sense() the
context mutex is reacquired and the context is made available
again. The context can be safely moved to the error state if
needed during the unavailable window as no other threads will
hold its reference.
