nvmet: fix fatal_err_work deadlock

Below is a stack trace for an issue that was reported.

What's happening is that the nvmet layer had it's controller kato
timeout fire, which causes it to schedule its fatal error handler
via the fatal_err_work element. The error handler is invoked, which
calls the transport delete_ctrl() entry point, and as the transport
tears down the controller, nvmet_sq_destroy ends up doing the final
put on the ctlr causing it to enter its free routine. The ctlr free
routine does a cancel_work_sync() on fatal_err_work element, which
then does a flush_work and wait_for_completion. But, as the wait is
in the context of the work element being flushed, its in a catch-22
and the thread hangs.

Correct by having the fc transport convert to a different workq context
for the actual controller teardown which may call the cancel_work_sync.
