ext4: Use rcu_barrier() on module unload.
The ext4 module uses rcu_call() thus it should use rcu_barrier()on module unload. The kmem cache ext4_pspace_cachep is sometimes free'ed using call_rcu() callbacks. Thus, we must wait for completion of call_rcu() before doing kmem_cache_destroy(). Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
