[PATCH v3 03/18] nvme: add context annotations for nvme_ns_head::srcu

Add Clang lock context annotations for helpers that operate under
head->srcu read-side protection.
The path selection helpers invoked by nvme_find_path() access SRCU-
protected data through srcu_dereference() and therefore require the
caller to hold head->srcu. Annotate these helpers and nvme_find_path()
with __must_hold_shared(&head->srcu) so that Clang's lock context
analysis can verify the SRCU locking requirements across the call chain.
Also update nvme_ns_head_ctrl_ioctl() to use __releases_shared()
to match the shared SRCU read-side lock acquired through
srcu_read_lock().
