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.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
