cfq-iosched: read_lock() does not always imply rcu_read_lock()

Browse source 
For some configurations of CONFIG_PREEMPT that is not true. So
get rid of __call_for_each_cic() and always uses the explicitly
rcu_read_lock() protected call_for_each_cic() instead.

This fixes a potential bug related to IO scheduler removal or
online switching.

Thanks to Paul McKenney for clarifying this.
