drbd: fix potential access after free
Occasionally, if we disconnect, we triggered this assert:
block drbd7: ASSERT FAILED tl_hash[27] == c30b0f04, expected NULL
hlist_del() happens only on master bio completion.
We used to wait for pending IO to complete before freeing tl_hash
on disconnect. We no longer do so, since we learned to "freeze"
IO on disconnect.
If the local disk is too slow, we may reach C_STANDALONE early,
and there are still some requests pending locally when we call
drbd_free_tl_hash().
If we now free the tl_hash, and later the local IO completion completes
the master bio, which then does hlist_del() and clobbers freed memory.
Do hlist_del_init() and hlist_add_fake() before kfree(tl_hash),
so the hlist_del() on master bio completion is harmless.
