The nvme pci driver synchronizes with all the namespace queues during a reset to ensure that there's no pending timeout work. Meanwhile the timeout work potentially iterates those same namespaces to freeze their queues. Each of those namespace iterations use the same read lock. If a write lock should somehow get between the synchronize and freeze steps, then forward progress is deadlocked. We had been relying on the nvme controller state machine to ensure the reset work wouldn't conflict with timeout work. That guarantee may be a bit fragile to rely on, so iterate the namespace lists without taking potentially circular locks, as reported by lockdep.
