blk-cgroup: support to track if policy is online
A new field 'online' is added to blkg_policy_data to fix following 2 problem: 1) In blkcg_activate_policy(), if pd_alloc_fn() with 'GFP_NOWAIT' failed, 'queue_lock' will be dropped and pd_alloc_fn() will try again without 'GFP_NOWAIT'. In the meantime, remove cgroup can race with it, and pd_offline_fn() will be called without pd_init_fn() and pd_online_fn(). This way null-ptr-deference can be triggered. 2) In order to synchronize pd_free_fn() from blkg_free_workfn() and blkcg_deactivate_policy(), 'list_del_init(&blkg->q_node)' will be delayed to blkg_free_workfn(), hence pd_offline_fn() can be called first in blkg_destroy(), and then blkcg_deactivate_policy() will call it again, we must prevent it. The new field 'online' will be set after pd_online_fn() and will be cleared after pd_offline_fn(), in the meantime pd_offline_fn() will only be called if 'online' is set.
