blkcg: Fix multiple bugs in blkcg_activate_policy()
blkcg_activate_policy() has the following bugs.
* cf09a8e ("blkcg: pass @q and @blkcg into
blkcg_pol_alloc_pd_fn()") added @blkcg to ->pd_alloc_fn(); however,
blkcg_activate_policy() ends up using pd's allocated for the root
blkcg for all preallocations, so ->pd_init_fn() for non-root blkcgs
can be passed in pd's which are allocated for the root blkcg.
For blk-iocost, this means that ->pd_init_fn() can write beyond the
end of the allocated object as it determines the length of the flex
array at the end based on the blkcg's nesting level.
* Each pd is initialized as they get allocated. If alloc fails, the
policy will get freed with pd's initialized on it.
* After the above partial failure, the partial pds are not freed.
This patch fixes all the above issues by
* Restructuring blkcg_activate_policy() so that alloc and init passes
are separate. Init takes place only after all allocs succeeded and
on failure all allocated pds are freed.
* Unifying and fixing the cleanup of the remaining pd_prealloc.
