Subject: [PATCH 5.2 105/413] block: null_blk: fix race condition for null_del_dev

[ Upstream commit 7602843fd873cae43a444b83b14dfdd114a9659c ]

Dulicate call of null_del_dev() will trigger null pointer error like below.
The reason is a race condition between nullb_device_power_store() and
nullb_group_drop_item().

  CPU#0                         CPU#1
  ----------------              -----------------
  do_rmdir()
   >configfs_rmdir()
    >client_drop_item()
     >nullb_group_drop_item()
                                nullb_device_power_store()
				>null_del_dev()

      >test_and_clear_bit(NULLB_DEV_FL_UP
       >null_del_dev()
       ^^^^^
       Duplicated null_dev_dev() triger null pointer error

				>clear_bit(NULLB_DEV_FL_UP

The fix could be keep the sequnce of clear NULLB_DEV_FL_UP and null_del_dev().
