nvmf: Narrow scope of sim lock in nvmf_sim_io
nvmf_submit_request() handles races with concurrent queue pair destruction (or the queue pair being destroyed between nvmf_allocate_request and nvmf_submit_request), so the lock is not needed here. This avoids holding the lock across transport-specific logic such as queueing mbufs for PDUs to a socket buffer, etc. Holding the lock across nvmf_allocate_request() ensures that the queue pair pointers in the softc are still valid as shutdown attempts will block on the lock before destroying the queue pairs.
