nvme_ns_head_ioctl is always used on multipath nodes, no need to
deal with the de-multiplexers.

nvme_ns_head_chr_ioctl is always used on multipath nodes, so just call
srcu_read_unlock and consolidate the two unlock paths.

In multipath case, we should consider namespace attachment with
controllers in a subsystem when we find out the live controller for the
namespace. This patch manually reverted the commit 3557a44097
("nvme: don't bother to look up a namespace for controller ioctls") with
few more updates to nvme_ns_head_chr_ioctl which has been newly updated.

Userspace has not been allowed to I/O to device that's failed to
be initialized. This patch introduces generic per-namespace character
device to allow userspace to I/O regardless the block device is there or
not.
The chardev naming convention will similar to the existing blkdev naming,
using a ng prefix instead of nvme, i.e.
- /dev/ngXnY
It also supports multipath which means it will not expose chardev for the
hidden namespace blkdevs (e.g., nvmeXcYnZ). If /dev/ngXnY is created for
a ns_head, then I/O request will be routed to a specific controller
selected by the iopolicy of the subsystem.

Split out the ioctl code from core.c into a new file. Also update
copyrights while we're at it.
