From: Lai Siyao <lai.si...@intel.com>

Statahead thread should wait for inflight stat RPCs to finish in
case statahead RPC callback may access data allocated in statahead
thread context.

ll_sa_entry_fini() should keep old entry if stat RPC is not
finished yet.

Simplify sai refcounting:
* newly allocated sai will hold one refcount, and it will put it
  after starting statahead thread.
* statahead thread holds one refcount.
* agl thread holds one refcount.
* stat process calls do_statahead_enter() which will try to get
  sai, and if it's valid, it will revalidate from statahead cache,
  and put refcount after use.
