kernel - Add callback API for mpipe
* Add a callback API for mpipe which uses a dedicated kthread,
allowing clients to avoid deadlocks related to held locks during
strategy calls.
* Add mpipe_alloc_callback(). Use of this function also requires
that MPF_CALLBACK be supplied to mpipe_init().
* Add mpipe_wait(). This function may be used for clients which
which to roll their own mpipe retry loop (or already have their
own thread(s) to deal with it in a safe manner).
