Subject: nbd: add locking to nbd_ioctl


The code was written with "oh big kernel lock, please protect me from
all the evil" mentality: it does not locks its own data structures, it
just hopes that big kernel lock somehow helps.

It does not. (My fault).

So this uses tx_lock to protect data structures from concurrent use
between ioctl and worker threads.
