[PATCH 3/4] nvme: unfreeze queues before removing namespaces

[Ming Lei]

If removal is from breaking error recovery, queues may be frozen, and
there may be pending IOs in bio_queue_enter(), and the following
del_gendisk() may wait for these IOs, especially from writeback.

Similar IO hang exists in flushing scan work too if there are pending
IO in scan work context.

Fix the kind of issue by unfreezing queues before removing namespace,
so that all pending IOs can be handled.
