    Commit 3bc5e683c67d (bfq: Split shared queues on move between cgroups)
    changes that move process to a new cgroup will allocate a new bfqq to
    use, however, the old bfqq and new bfqq can point to the same bic:

    1) Initial state, two process with io in the same cgroup.

    Process 1       Process 2
     (BIC1)          (BIC2)
      |              |  
      |  |            |  |
      V  |            V  |
      bfqq1           bfqq2

    2) bfqq1 is merged to bfqq2.

    Process 1       Process 2
     (BIC1)          (BIC2)
      |               |
       \-------------\|
                      V
      bfqq1           bfqq2(coop)

    3) Process 1 exit, then issue new io(denoce IOA) from Process 2.

     (BIC2)
      |  
      |  |
      V  |
      bfqq2(coop)

    4) Before IOA is completed, move Process 2 to another cgroup and issue io.

    Process 2
     (BIC2)
       
       |\--------------\
       |                V
      bfqq2           bfqq3

    Now that BIC2 points to bfqq3, while bfqq2 and bfqq3 both point to BIC2.
    If all the requests are completed, and Process 2 exit, BIC2 will be
    freed while there is no guarantee that bfqq2 will be freed before BIC2.

    Fix the problem by clearing bfqq->bic while bfqq is detached from bic.
