[ Upstream commit 8448828216 ]

This reverts commit d06923670b.

It was realized that the fix implemented to contain the race condition
among the keep alive task and the fabric shutdown code path in the commit
d06923670b5ia ("nvme: make keep-alive synchronous operation") is not
optimal. The reason being keep-alive runs under the workqueue and making
it synchronous would waste a workqueue context.
Furthermore, we later found that the above race condition is a regression
caused due to the changes implemented in commit a54a93d0e3 ("nvme: move
stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()"). So we decided to revert the
commit d06923670b ("nvme: make keep-alive synchronous operation") and
then fix the regression.
