[PATCH] nvme-fc: revert controller references on lldd module

[James Smart <jsmart2021@xxxxxxxxx>]

This patch partially reverts the commit for
  nvme_fc: add module to ops template to allow module references

The original patch:
  Added an ops parameter of "module" to be set by the lldd, and the
    lldds were updated to provide their value.
  Used the parameter to take module references when a controller was
    created or terminated.

The original patch was to resolve the lldd being able to be unloaded
while being used to talk to the boot device of the system. However, the
end result of the original patch is that any driver unload while a nvme
controller is live via the lldd is not being prohibited. Given the module
reference, the module teardown routine can't be called, thus there's no
way, other than manual actions to terminate the controllers.

This patch reverts the portion of the patch that takes module references
on controller creation. It leaves the module parameter so that it could
be used in the future.

As such, there will still remain the issue of detaching from the boot
device, yet needing boot device access to load a new module to replace
the lldd that was unloaded. A solution will be looked for later.
