Do this in order to prevent the task from being freed if the thread
returns (which can be triggered by the frontend) before the call to
kthread_stop done as part of the backend tear down. Not taking the
reference will lead to a use-after-free in that scenario. Such
reference was taken before but dropped as part of the rework done in
2ac061ce97f4.
Reintroduce the reference taking and add a comment this time
explaining why it's needed.
This is XSA-374 / CVE-2021-28691.
Fixes: 2ac061ce97f4 ('xen/netback: cleanup init and deinit code')
