Subject: [PATCH 5.14 086/168] nvme: avoid race in shutdown namespace removal

From: Daniel Wagner <dwagner@...e.de>

[ Upstream commit 9edceaf43050f5ba1dd7d0011bcf68a736a17743 ]

When we remove the siblings entry, we update ns->head->list, hence we
can't separate the removal and test for being empty. They have to be
in the same critical section to avoid a race.

To avoid breaking the refcounting imbalance again, add a list empty
check to nvme_find_ns_head.

Fixes: 5396fdac56d8 ("nvme: fix refcounting imbalance when all paths are down")
