Zhaoyang Huang 3ea11abdbe UPSTREAM: psi: Fix race between psi_trigger_create/destroy
Race detected between psi_trigger_destroy/create as shown below, which
cause panic by accessing invalid psi_system->poll_wait->wait_queue_entry
and psi_system->poll_timer->entry->next. Under this modification, the
race window is removed by initialising poll_wait and poll_timer in
group_init which are executed only once at beginning.

  psi_trigger_destroy()                   psi_trigger_create()

  mutex_lock(trigger_lock);
  rcu_assign_pointer(poll_task, NULL);
  mutex_unlock(trigger_lock);
					  mutex_lock(trigger_lock);
					  if (!rcu_access_pointer(group->poll_task)) {
					    timer_setup(poll_timer, poll_timer_fn, 0);
					    rcu_assign_pointer(poll_task, task);
					  }
					  mutex_unlock(trigger_lock);

  synchronize_rcu();
  del_timer_sync(poll_timer); <-- poll_timer has been reinitialized by
                                  psi_trigger_create()

So, trigger_lock/RCU correctly protects destruction of
group->poll_task but misses this race affecting poll_timer and
poll_wait.
