fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can race with fsnotify_destroy_marks() so when fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() drops mark_mutex, a mark from the list iterated by fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can be freed and we dereference free memory in the loop there. Fix the problem by keeping mark_mutex held in fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked(). The reason why we drop that mutex is that we need to call a ->freeing_mark() callback which may acquire mark_mutex again. To avoid this and similar lock inversion issues, we move the call to ->freeing_mark() callback to the kthread destroying the mark.
