[V2,1/8] ublk: properly serialize all FETCH_REQs

From: Uday Shankar <[e-mail]>

Most uring_cmds issued against ublk character devices are serialized
because each command affects only one queue, and there is an early check
which only allows a single task (the queue's ubq_daemon) to issue
uring_cmds against that queue. However, this mechanism does not work for
FETCH_REQs, since they are expected before ubq_daemon is set. Since
FETCH_REQs are only used at initialization and not in the fast path,
serialize them using the per-ublk-device mutex. This fixes a number of
data races that were previously possible if a badly behaved ublk server
decided to issue multiple FETCH_REQs against the same qid/tag
concurrently.
