ublk: remove struct ublk_rq_data
__ublk_check_and_get_req() attempts to atomically look up the struct
request for a ublk I/O and take a reference on it. However, the request
can be freed between the lookup on the tagset in blk_mq_tag_to_rq() and
the increment of its reference count in ublk_get_req_ref(), for example
if an elevator switch happens concurrently.
Fix the potential use after free by moving the reference count from
ublk_rq_data to ublk_io. Move the fields buf_index and buf_ctx_handle
too to reduce the number of cache lines touched when dispatching and
completing a ublk I/O, allowing ublk_rq_data to be removed entirely.
