From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>
The updating of 'bfqg->ref' should be protected by 'bfqd->lock', however,
during code review, we found that bfq_pd_free() update 'bfqg->ref'
without holding the lock, which is problematic:
1) bfq_pd_free() triggered by removing cgroup is called asynchronously;
2) bfqq will grab bfqg reference, and exit bfqq will drop the reference,
which can concurrenty with 1).
Unfortunately, 'bfqd->lock' can't be held here because 'bfqd' might already
be freed in bfq_pd_free(). Fix the problem by using atomic refcount apis.
