9p: Add refcount to p9_req_t
To avoid use-after-free(s), use a refcount to keep track of the
usable references to any instantiated struct p9_req_t.
This commit adds p9_req_put(), p9_req_get() and p9_req_try_get() as
wrappers to kref_put(), kref_get() and kref_get_unless_zero().
These are used by the client and the transports to keep track of
valid requests' references.
p9_free_req() is added back and used as callback by kref_put().
Add SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU as it ensures that the memory freed by
kmem_cache_free() will not be reused for another type until the rcu
synchronisation period is over, so an address gotten under rcu read
lock is safe to inc_ref() without corrupting random memory while
the lock is held.
