Seems like we should be holding the lock over the call
to nvme_dev_disable to get protection for the whole execution,
e.g. by adding a __nvme_dev_disable variant that expects the lock
to be held.

Maybe it's also worth renaming shutdown_lock to register_mutex
or similar to better document what it protects.
