nvm_tgt_types list was protected by wrong lock for NVM_INFO ioctl call
and can race with addition or removal of target types.  Also
unregistering target type was not protected correctly.

Fixes: 5cd907853 ("lightnvm: remove nested lock conflict with mm")
Signed-off-by: Rakesh Pandit <rakesh@tuxera.com>

V2: also add correct lock while unregistering and fix "Fixes" tag at
end.  Note I found these while investigating another issue and
skimming the core code but worth fixing.
