md/r5cache: fix io_unit handling in r5l_log_endio()
In r5l_log_endio(), once log->io_list_lock is released, the io unit may be accessed (or even freed) by other threads. Current code doesn't handle the io_unit properly, which leads to potential race conditions. This patch solves this race condition by: 1. Add a pending_stripe count flush_payload. Multiple flush_payloads are counted as only one pending_stripe. Flag has_flush_payload is added to show whether the io unit has flush_payload; 2. In r5l_log_endio(), check flags has_null_flush and has_flush_payload with log->io_list_lock held. After the lock is released, this IO unit is only accessed when we know the pending_stripe counter cannot be zeroed by other threads.
