fs/aio: Add explicit RCU grace period when freeing kioctx
While fixing refcounting, e34ecee2ae79 ("aio: Fix a trinity splat")
incorrectly removed explicit RCU grace period before freeing kioctx.
The intention seems to be depending on the internal RCU grace periods
of percpu_ref; however, percpu_ref uses a different flavor of RCU,
sched-RCU. This can lead to kioctx being freed while RCU read
protected dereferences are still in progress.
Fix it by updating free_ioctx() to go through call_rcu() explicitly.
v2: Comment added to explain double bouncing.
