Pavel Begunkov 52504a61ab io_uring: close a small race gap for files cancel
commit dfea9fce29fda6f2f91161677e0e0d9b671bc099 upstream.

The purpose of io_uring_cancel_files() is to wait for all requests
matching ->files to go/be cancelled. We should first drop files of a
request in io_req_drop_files() and only then make it undiscoverable for
io_uring_cancel_files.

First drop, then delete from list. It's ok to leave req->id->files
dangling, because it's not dereferenced by cancellation code, only
compared against. It would potentially go to sleep and be awaken by
following in io_req_drop_files() wake_up().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
