bio_free isn't a good place to free cgroup/integrity info. There are a
lot of cases bio is allocated in special way (for example, in stack) and
never gets called by bio_put hence bio_free, we are leaking memory. This
patch moves the free to bio endio, which should be called anyway. The
__bio_free call in bio_free is kept, in case the bio never gets called
bio endio.

This assumes ->bi_end_io() doesn't access cgroup/integrity info, which
seems true in my audit. Otherwise, we probably must add a flag to
distinguish if bio will be called by bio_put.
