NVMe: RCU protected access to io queues
This adds rcu protected access to nvme_queue to fix a race between a surprise removal freeing the queue and a thread with open reference on a NVMe block device using that queue. The queues do not need to be rcu protected during the initialization or shutdown parts, so I've added a helper function for raw deferencing to get around the sparse errors. There is still a hole in the IOCTL path for the same problem, which is fixed in a subsequent patch.
