performance/io-threads: Exit threads in fini() as well
Problem: io-threads starts the thread in 'init()' but doesn't clean them up on 'fini()'. It relies on PARENT_DOWN to exit threads but there can be cases where event before PARENT_UP the graph init code can think of issuing fini(). This code path is hit when glfs_init() is called on a volume that is in 'stopped' state. It leads to a crash in ganesha process, because the io-thread tries to access freed memory. Fix: Ideal fix would be to wait for all fops in io-thread list to be completed on PARENT_DOWN, and have fini() do cleanup of threads. Because there is no proper documentation about how PARENT_DOWN/fini are supposed to be used, we are getting different kinds of sequences in different higher level protocols. So for now cleaning up in both PARENT_DOWN and fini(). Fuse doesn't call fini() gfapi is not calling PARENT_DOWN in some cases, so for now I don't see another way out.
