[PATCH 02/41] staging: lustre: obdclass: Add synchro in lu_context_key_degister()

[James Simmons <jsimmons@infradead.org>]

From: Patrick Valentin <patrick.valentin@bull.net>

When unloading a module, it may happen that lu_context_key_degister()
removes a key while a thread is either registering it in a new
context (lu_context_init(), lu_context_refill()), or using it when
exiting from a context (lu_context__exit(), lu_context__fini()).

In these cases, we reference a key which no longer exists, and
the system crashes either because we use a *POISON'ed* pointer
in key_fini() -> key->lct_fini(), or because one of the following
assertions fails:
 - lu_context_key_degister():
        ASSERTION(cfs_atomic_read(&key->lct_used) == 1)
                  failed: key has instances: 2

 - lu_context_exit():
        ASSERTION(key != NULL)

 - key_fini():
        ASSERTION(atomic_read(&key->lct_used) > 1)

This can also leads to SLAB objects which are not freed:
        slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `echo_thread_kmem':
                   Can't free all objects

Note: ptlrpc service threads need to call lu_context_init/fini in
each loop (for each RPC), and this could be a big performance issue
on fat SMP machines if we add serialization by a spinlock and need
to lock/unlock it for multiple times for each RPC.

So the aim of this patch, which only impacts some low frequently used
functions, is:
  1) to add a synchronization in lu_context_key_quiesce(), also called
     by lu_context_key_degister(), to wait until all key::lct_init()
     methods have completed, by serializing with keys_fill()
  2) to add a synchronization in lu_context_key_degister(), to wait
     until all transient contexts referencing this key have run
     key::lct_fini() method
