[PATCH RESENT] fs, ipc: Use an asynchronous version of kern_unmount in IPC

[Salman Qazi <sqazi@google.com>]

Prior to this patch, the kernel can spend a lot of time with
this stack trace:

[<ffffffffbe5491e3>] __wait_rcu_gp+0x93/0xe0
[<ffffffffbe549418>] synchronize_sched+0x48/0x60
[<ffffffffbe7ae5b3>] kern_unmount+0x3a/0x46
[<ffffffffbe847c02>] mq_put_mnt+0x15/0x17
[<ffffffffbe8481af>] put_ipc_ns+0x36/0x8b

This patch solves the issue by removing synchronize_rcu from mq_put_mnt.
This is done by implementing an asynchronous version of kern_unmount.

Since mntput() sleeps, it needs to be deferred to a work queue.

Additionally, the callers of mq_put_mnt appear to be safe having
it behave asynchronously.  In particular, put_ipc_ns calls
mq_clear_sbinfo which renders the inode inaccessible for the purposes of
mqueue_create by making s_fs_info NULL.  This appears
to be the thing that prevents access while free_ipc_ns is taking place.
So, the unmount should be able to proceed lazily.

Tested: Ran the following program:

    int main(void)
    {
            int pid;
            int status;
            int i;

            for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
                    pid = fork();
                    if (!pid) {
                            assert(!unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER|
                                      CLONE_NEWIPC|CLONE_NEWNS));
                            return 0;
                    }

                    assert(waitpid(pid, &status, 0) == pid);
            }
    }

Before:

$ time ./unshare2

real    0m9.784s
user    0m0.428s
sys     0m0.000s

After:

$ time ./unshare2

real    0m0.368s
user    0m0.226s
sys     0m0.122s
