fuse: fix hang of single threaded fuseblk filesystem
Single threaded NTFS-3G could get stuck if a delayed RELEASE reply triggered a DESTROY request via path_put(). Fix this by a) making RELEASE requests synchronous, whenever possible, on fuseblk filesystems b) if not possible (triggered by an asynchronous read/write) then do the path_put() in a separate thread with schedule_work().
