ids_inflight is used to track the inflight IOs. But the use of atomic_t
variable can cause performance drops and can also become a performance
bottleneck.

This commit replaces the use of atomic_t with a percpu_ref structure. The
advantage it offers is, it doesn't check if the reference has fallen to 0,
until the user explicitly signals it to; and that is done by the
percpu_ref_kill() function call. After that, the percpu_ref structure
behaves like an atomic_t and for every put call, checks whether the
reference has fallen to 0 or not.

rtrs_srv_stats_rdma_to_str shows the count of ids_inflight as 0
for user-mode tools not to be confused.
