nvmet: fix fatal_err_work deadlock
Below is a stack trace for an issue that was reported. What's happening is that the nvmet layer had it's controller kato timeout fire, which causes it to schedule its fatal error handler via the fatal_err_work element. The error handler is invoked, which calls the transport delete_ctrl() entry point, and as the transport tears down the controller, nvmet_sq_destroy ends up doing the final put on the ctlr causing it to enter its free routine. The ctlr free routine does a cancel_work_sync() on fatal_err_work element, which then does a flush_work and wait_for_completion. But, as the wait is in the context of the work element being flushed, its in a catch-22 and the thread hangs. [ 326.903131] nvmet: ctrl 1 keep-alive timer (15 seconds) expired!

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
