Subject: [RESEND PATCH 1/2] aio: simplify fetching ioctx_table pointer from,
 mm_struct

Using rcu_dereference_protected() rather than the "rcu_read_lock-->
rcu_dereference-->rcu_read_unlock" group to simplify fetching the
ioctx_table pointer in ioctx_add_table and kill_ioctx, because it
is protected by the ioctx_lock.
And in the exit_aio(), there are no other users manipulating ioctx_table
at this stage, so we can use rcu_access_pointer directly.
