cfq-iosched: fix race between exiting queue and exiting task
Original patch from Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de> When a queue exits the queue lock is taken and cfq_exit_queue() would free all the cic's associated with the queue. But when a task exits, cfq_exit_io_context() gets cic one by one and then locks the associated queue to call __cfq_exit_single_io_context. It looks like between getting a cic from the ioc and locking the queue, the queue might have exited on another cpu. Fix this by rechecking the cfq_io_context queue key inside the queue lock again, and not calling into __cfq_exit_single_io_context() if somebody beat us to it.
