[Devel] [PATCH rh7] fuse: resend interrupted release

If a client gets fatal signal while explicitly waiting for ACK from fused
(request_wait_answer()), kernel fuse discards the request like this:

> 		/* Request is not yet in userspace, bail out */
> 		if (req->state == FUSE_REQ_PENDING) {
> 			list_del(&req->list);
> 			__fuse_put_request(req);
> 			req->out.h.error = -EINTR;
> 			return;
> 		}

This is nice for requests directly initiated by client, but not for RELEASE
requests: we have to avoid discarding RELEASE requests because otherwise
fused won't know when the file is "closed" by client (last fput called).

The problem didn't exist before close_wait feature because then fuse_file_put
sent RELEASE asynchronously. Hence no request_wait_answer() involved.

The patch solves the problem by resending interrupted RELEASE asynchronously.
This is OK because if the client is killed, he/she doesn't care about
sync/async close(2) behavior.
