3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <[email protected]>

commit d0264c01e7587001a8c4608a5d1818dba9a4c11a upstream.

While converting ioctx index from a list to a table, db446a08c23d
("aio: convert the ioctx list to table lookup v3") missed tagging
kioctx_table->table[] as an array of RCU pointers and using the
appropriate RCU accessors.  This introduces a small window in the
lookup path where init and access may race.

Mark kioctx_table->table[] with __rcu and use the approriate RCU
accessors when using the field.
