[PATCH RFC 3/3] lightnvm: fix media mgr registration

[Matias BjÃrling]

The ppa pool can be used at media manager registration.
Therefore the ppa pool should be allocated before registering.

If a media manager can't be found, this should not lead to the
device being unallocated. A media manager can be registered later, that
can manage a device. Only warn if a media manager fails initialization.

Additionally, protect against the media managed being registered or
deregistered while looping through available media managers. This was
reported by Wenwei Tao.
