list_lru: organize all list_lrus to list

To make list_lru memcg aware, we need all list_lrus to be kept on a list
protected by a mutex, so that we could sleep while walking over the
list.

Therefore after this change list_lru_destroy may sleep.  Fortunately,
there is only one user that calls it from an atomic context - it's
put_super - and we can easily fix it by calling list_lru_destroy before
put_super in destroy_locked_super - anyway we don't longer need lrus by
that time.

Another point that should be noted is that list_lru_destroy is allowed
to be called on an uninitialized zeroed-out object, in which case it is
a no-op.  Before this patch this was guaranteed by kfree, but now we
need an explicit check there.
