This patch fixes two bugs uncovered during testing with
slub_debug=FPUZ during module_exit() -> target_core_exit_configfs()
with release of configfs subsystem consumer default groups, namely how
this should be working with
fs/configfs/dir.c:configfs_unregister_subsystem() release logic for
struct config_group->default_group.
The first issue involves configfs_unregister_subsystem() expecting to
walk+drain the top-level subsys->su_group.default_groups directly in
unlink_group(), and not directly from the configfs subsystem consumer
for the top level struct config_group->default_groups. This patch
drops the walk+drain of subsys->su_group.default_groups from TCM
configfs subsystem consumer code, and moves the top-level
->default_groups kfree() after configfs_unregister_subsystem() has
been called.
The second issue involves calling
core_alua_free_lu_gp(se_global->default_lu_gp) to release the
default_lu_gp->lu_gp_group before configfs_unregister_subsystem() has
been called. This patches also moves the core_alua_free_lu_gp() call
to release default_lu_group->lu_gp_group after the subsys has been
unregistered.
Finally, this patch explictly clears the
[lu_gp,alua,hba]_cg->default_groups pointers after kfree() to ensure
that no stale memory is picked up from child struct
config_group->default_group[] while configfs_unregister_subsystem() is
called.

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:
High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.
Advanced SCSI feature set:
* Persistent Reservations (PRs)
* Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
* Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
* Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
* Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
* Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)
Multiprotocol target plugins
Storage media independence:
* Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
* No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
* Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.
Standards compliance:
* Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
* Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA
Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.
