Roland Dreier 489beb91e6 nvme-fabrics: Convert nvmf_transports_mutex to an rwsem
The mutex protects against the list of transports changing while a
controller is being created, but using a plain old mutex means that it
also serializes controller creation.  This unnecessarily slows down
creating multiple controllers - for example for the RDMA transport,
creating a controller involves establishing one connection for every IO
queue, which involves even more network/software round trips, so the
delay can become significant.

The simplest way to fix this is to change the mutex to an rwsem and only
hold it for writing when the list is being mutated.  Since we can take
the rwsem for reading while creating a controller, we can create multiple
controllers in parallel.
