fcoe: Fix deadlock while deleting FCoE interface with NPIV ports

This patch fixes following deadlock caused by destroying of
an FCoE interface with active NPIV ports on that interface.

Based on feedback and discussion with Neil Horman it seems that the above patch
may have a case where the fcoe_vport_destroy() and fcoe_destroy_work() can
race; hence that patch has been withdrawn with this patch that is trying to
solve the same problem in a different way.

In the current approach instead of removing the fcoe_config_mutex from the
vport_delete callback function; I've chosen to delete all the NPIV ports first
on a given root lport before continuing with the removal of the root lport.
