Hello everyone!

Recently we found some bugs while doing tests on cachefiles ondemand mode,
and this patchset is a fix for some of those issues. The following is a
brief overview of the patches, see the patches for more details.

Patch 1-3: After an object has been cleaned up, make sure it has no
outstanding requests and that the corresponding ondemand_object_worker
has exited, otherwise it may use-after-free.

Patch 4: Cyclic allocation of msg_id to avoid msg_id reuse misleading
the daemon to cause hung.

Patch 5: Hold xas_lock during polling to avoid dereferencing reqs causing
use-after-free.

Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.

Thanks,
Baokun
