[SCSI] fcoe: add mutex to protect create and destroy

Rather than rely on the hostlist_lock to be held while creating exchange
managers, serialize fcoe instance creation and destruction with a mutex.
This will allow the hostlist addition to be moved out of fcoe_if_create(),
which will simplify NPIV support.
