[PATCH -next v3 3/3] blk-cgroup: synchronize pd_free_fn() from blkg_free_workfn() and blkcg_deactivate_policy()

[Yu Kuai]

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently parent pd can be freed before child pd:

t1: remove cgroup C1
blkcg_destroy_blkgs
 blkg_destroy
  list_del_init(&blkg->q_node)
  // remove blkg from queue list
  percpu_ref_kill(&blkg->refcnt)
   blkg_release
    call_rcu

t2: from t1
__blkg_release
 blkg_free
  schedule_work
			t4: deactivate policy
			blkcg_deactivate_policy
			 pd_free_fn
			 // parent of C1 is freed first
t3: from t2
 blkg_free_workfn
  pd_free_fn

If policy(for example, ioc_timer_fn() from iocost) access parent pd from
child pd after pd_offline_fn(), then UAF can be triggered.

Fix the problem by delaying 'list_del_init(&blkg->q_node)' from
blkg_destroy() to blkg_free_workfn(), and using a new disk level mutex to
synchronize blkg_free_workfn() and blkcg_deactivate_policy().
