commit f7b32e785042d2357c5abc23ca6db1b92c91a070 upstream.
Callers of mutex_unlock() have to make sure that the mutex stays alive
for the whole duration of the function call. For io_uring that means
that the following pattern is not valid unless we ensure that the
context outlives the mutex_unlock() call.
mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock);
req_put(req); // typically via io_req_task_submit()
mutex_unlock(&ctx->uring_lock);
Most contexts are fine: io-wq pins requests, syscalls hold the file,
task works are taking ctx references and so on. However, the task work
fallback path doesn't follow the rule.
