blk-cgroup: delay calling blkcg_exit_disk until disk_release
While del_gendisk ensures there is no outstanding I/O on the queue, it can't prevent block layer users from building new I/O. This leads to a NULL ->root_blkg reference in bio_associate_blkg when allocating a new bio on a shut down file system. Delay freeing the blk-cgroup subsystems from del_gendisk until disk_release to make sure the blkg and throttle information is still avaіlable for bio submitters, even if those bios will immediately fail. This now can cause a case where disk_release is called on a disk that hasn't been added. That's mostly harmless, except for a case in blk_throttl_exit that now needs to check for a NULL ->td pointer.
