Subject: [PATCH 4.0 002/105] aio: fix serial draining in exit_aio()

4.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jens Axboe <axboe@...com>

commit dc48e56d761610da4ea1088d1bea0a030b8e3e43 upstream.

exit_aio() currently serializes killing io contexts. Each context
killing ends up having to do percpu_ref_kill(), which in turns has
to wait for an RCU grace period. This can take a long time, depending
on the number of contexts. And there's no point in doing them serially,
when we could be waiting for all of them in one fell swoop.

This patches makes my fio thread offload test case exit 0.2s instead
of almost 6s.
