Subject: nvme: protect against simultaneous shutdown invocations

From: Keith Busch <[email protected]>

commit 77bf25ea70200cddf083f74b7f617e5f07fac8bd upstream.

[Back-ported to 4.4. The difference is the file location of the struct definition that's adding the mutex.

This fixes reported kernel panics in 4.4-stable from simultaneous controller resets that was never supposed to be allowed to happen.]
