Subject: [PATCH] block: Fix use-after-free issue accessing struct io_cq

There is a potential race between ioc_release_fn() and
ioc_clear_queue() as shown below, due to which below kernel
crash is observed. It also can result into use-after-free
issue.

context#1:				context#2:
ioc_release_fn()			__ioc_clear_queue() gets the same icq
->spin_lock(&ioc->lock);		->spin_lock(&ioc->lock);
->ioc_destroy_icq(icq);
  ->list_del_init(&icq->q_node);
  ->call_rcu(&icq->__rcu_head,
  	icq_free_icq_rcu);
->spin_unlock(&ioc->lock);
					->ioc_destroy_icq(icq);
					  ->hlist_del_init(&icq->ioc_node);
					  This results into below crash as this memory
					  is now used by icq->__rcu_head in context#1.
					  There is a chance that icq could be free'd
					  as well.

Fix this by adding a new ICQ_DESTROYED flag in ioc_destroy_icq() to
indicate this icq is once marked as destroyed. Also, ensure
__ioc_clear_queue() is accessing icq within rcu_read_lock/unlock so
that icq doesn't get free'd up while it is still using it.
