epoll: fix race between ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) and ep_free()/ep_remove()
The race was introduced by me in commit 971316f0503a ("epoll: ep_unregister_pollwait() can use the freed pwq->whead"). I did not realize that nothing can protect eventpoll after ep_poll_callback() sets ->whead = NULL, only whead->lock can save us from the race with ep_free() or ep_remove(). Move ->whead = NULL to the end of ep_poll_callback() and add the necessary barriers. TODO: cleanup the ewake/EPOLLEXCLUSIVE logic, it was confusing even before this patch. Hopefully this explains use-after-free reported by syzcaller: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in debug_spin_lock_before ... _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x4a/0x60 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:159 ep_poll_callback+0x29f/0xff0 fs/eventpoll.c:1148 this is spin_lock(eventpoll->lock), ...
