[PATCH v3 13/18] nvme: add context annotations in rdma.c

device_list and nvme_rdma_device::entry are protected by
device_list_mutex. Define device_list using
LIST_HEAD_GUARDED(device_list, device_list_mutex) and annotate
nvme_rdma_device::entry with __guarded_by(&device_list_mutex) so that
Clang's context analysis can validate accesses against the corresponding
locking requirements.
Similarly, nvme_rdma_ctrl_list and nvme_rdma_ctrl::list are
protected by nvme_rdma_ctrl_mutex. Define nvme_rdma_ctrl_list using
LIST_HEAD_GUARDED(nvme_rdma_ctrl_list, nvme_rdma_ctrl_mutex) and
annotate nvme_rdma_ctrl::list with __guarded_by(&nvme_rdma_ctrl_mutex).
It is safe to initialize nvme_rdma_ctrl::list while allocating the
controller object because the list entry has not yet been added to
nvme_rdma_ctrl_list. Annotate the initialization with context_unsafe()
to suppress the corresponding Clang context analysis warning.
