[PATCH v2] netfs, 9p: Fix race between umount and async request completion

There's a problem in 9p's interaction with netfslib whereby a crash occurs
because the 9p_fid structs get forcibly destroyed during client teardown
(without paying attention to their refcounts) before netfslib has finished
with them.  However, it's not a simple case of deferring the clunking that
p9_fid_put() does as that requires the client.

The problem is that netfslib has to unlock pages and clear the IN_PROGRESS
flag before destroying the objects involved - including the pid - and, in
any case, nothing checks to see if writeback completed barring looking at
the page flags.

Fix this by keeping a count of outstanding I/O requests (of any type) and
waiting for it to quiesce during inode eviction.
