[Chaitanya Kulkarni]

Introduce car dev relase function, get/put the module refernece which
allows us to fix the potential Oops which can be easily reproduced with
NVMeOF passthru ctrl :-

With this patch fix we take the module ref count in nvme_dev_open() and
release that ref count in newly introduced nvme_dev_release().
