Using the batch API from the interconnect driver sometimes leads to a
KASAN error due to an access to freed memory. This is easier to trigger
with threadirqs on the kernel commandline.

 The buggy address belongs to the object at fffffff51414ac80
  which belongs to the cache kmalloc-512 of size 512
 The buggy address is located 260 bytes inside of
  512-byte region [fffffff51414ac80, fffffff51414ae80)
 The buggy address belongs to the page:
 page:ffffffbfd4505200 count:1 mapcount:0 mapping:fffffff51e00c680 index:0x0 compound_mapcount: 0

The batch API sets the same completion for each rpmh message that's sent
and then loops through all the messages and waits for that single
completion declared on the stack to be completed before returning from
the function and freeing the message structures. Unfortunately, some
messages may still be in process and 'stuck' in the TCS. At some later
point, the tcs_tx_done() interrupt will run and try to process messages
that have already been freed at the end of rpmh_write_batch(). This will
in turn access the 'needs_free' member of the rpmh_request structure and
cause KASAN to complain. Furthermore, if there's a message that's
completed in rpmh_tx_done() and freed immediately after the complete()
call is made we'll be racing with potentially freed memory when
accessing the 'needs_free' member:

	CPU0                         CPU1
	----                         ----
	rpmh_tx_done()
	 complete(&compl)
	                             wait_for_completion(&compl)
	                             kfree(rpm_msg)
	 if (rpm_msg->needs_free)
	 <KASAN warning splat>

Let's fix this by allocating a chunk of completions for each message and
waiting for all of them to be completed before returning from the batch
API. Alternatively, we could wait for the last message in the batch, but
that may be a more complicated change because it looks like
tcs_tx_done() just iterates through the indices of the queue and
completes each message instead of tracking the last inserted message and
completing that first.
