staging: lustre: ptlrpc: move thread creation out of module initialization
When the ptlrpc module is loaded, it starts the pinger thread and calls LNetNIInit which starts various threads. We don't need these threads until the module is actually being used, such as when a lustre filesystem is mounted. So move the thread creation into new ptlrpc_inc_ref() (modeled on ptlrpcd_inc_ref()), and call that when needed, such as at mount time.
