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race; hence that patch has been withdrawn with this patch that is trying to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.
