7.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shuangpeng Bai <[email protected]> commit fd73b691702170d37d66f4b0278530cea8ed419a upstream. eventfs_remove_rec() recursively removes the child at the current loop position. After the recursive call returns, list_for_each_entry() advances by reading list.next from the removed child. If free_ei() drops the final reference, release_ei() reuses the list/rcu union to queue an SRCU callback. The child may be freed before that read. The eventfs_mutex serializes list updates, but it does not keep the removed child alive or prevent the SRCU callback from running. Use list_for_each_entry_safe() to save the next sibling before recursively removing the current child.
