netfs: Fix setting NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED to be after all subreqs queued
Due to the code that queues a subreq on the active subrequest list getting moved to netfs_issue_read(), the NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED flag may now get set before the list-add actually happens. This is not a problem if the collection worker happens after the list-add, but it's a race - and, for 9P, where the read from the server is synchronous and done in the submitting thread, this is a lot more likely. The result is that, if the timing is wrong, a ref gets leaked because the collector thinks that all the subreqs have completed (because it can't see the last one yet) and clears NETFS_RREQ_IN_PROGRESS - at which point, the collection worker no longer goes into the collector. This can be provoked with AFS by injecting an msleep() right before the final subreq is queued. Fix this by splitting the queuing part out of netfs_issue_read() into a new function, netfs_queue_read(), and calling it separately. The setting of NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED is then done by netfs_queue_read() whilst it is holding the spinlock (that's probably unnecessary, but shouldn't hurt). It might be better to set a flag on the final subreq, but this could be a problem if an error occurs and we can't queue it.
