[PATCH 3/4] nvme-apple: move blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues after nvme_unfreeze

blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() freezes and unfreezes queues internally.
When the queue is already frozen before this call (from nvme_start_freeze
in apple_nvme_disable), the freeze depth becomes 2. The internal unfreeze
only decrements it to 1, leaving the queue still frozen when
debugfs_create_files() is called.

This triggers WARN_ON_ONCE(q->mq_freeze_depth != 0) in
debugfs_create_files() and risks deadlock.

Fix this by moving nvme_unfreeze() before blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues()
so the queue is unfrozen before the call, allowing the internal
freeze/unfreeze to work correctly.
