aio: fix uncorrent dirty pages accouting when truncating AIO ring bufferhttps://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86831
Markus reported that when shutting down mysqld (with AIO support,
on a ext3 formatted Harddrive) leads to a negative number of dirty pages
(underrun to the counter). The negative number results in a drastic reduction
of the write performance because the page cache is not used, because the kernel
thinks it is still 2 ^ 32 dirty pages open.

aio: block exit_aio() until all context requests are completedIt seems that exit_aio() also needs to wait for all iocbs to complete (like
io_destroy), but we missed the wait step in current implemention, so fix
it in the same way as we did in io_destroy.

aio: add missing smp_rmb() in read_events_ringWe ran into a case on ppc64 running mariadb where io_getevents would
return zeroed out I/O events. After adding instrumentation, it became
clear that there was some missing synchronization between reading the
tail pointer and the events themselves. This small patch fixes the
problem in testing.
Thanks to Zach for helping to look into this, and suggesting the fix.
