Commit e061feb8 and 9a11ebeb5 introduce a bug to race with drbd_free_peer_req()
in got_peer_ack.

drbd_free_page_chain in drbd_finish_peer_reqs and got_peer_ack may happen
concurrently, the sequence is as follows:

drbd_finish_peer_reqs                 got_peer_ack
drbd_free_page_chain		      drbd_free_peer_req
spin_lock()
page_chain_add
spin_unlock()                         spin_lock()
				      page_chain_add
				      spin_unlock()
We can see that page_chain_add will be called twice which will lead
to crash.

Revert those two commits to ensure that drbd_free_page_chain will only
called once for one peer_req.
