Subject: [PATCH 4.5 11/88] null_blk: add lightnvm null_blk device to the nullb_list

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wenwei Tao <ww.tao0320@...il.com>

commit 3681c85dffda70e551dead31c8d102bd69033fe8 upstream.

After register null_blk devices into lightnvm, we forget
to add these devices to the the nullb_list, makes them
invisible to the null_blk driver.
