[PATCH v2] io_uring/fdinfo: park SQ thread while retrieving cpu/pid

[Jens Axboe]

We could race with SQ thread exit, and if we do, we'll hit a NULL pointer
dereference when the thread is cleared. Grab the SQPOLL data lock before
attempting to get the task cpu and pid for fdinfo, this ensures we have a
stable view of it.

v2: use the sq_data lock rather than doing a full park/unpark

Since v2 no longer parks the SQ thread, the commit subject also needs
to change to lock(&sq->lock).

Oh indeed, good catch. I'll adjust that locally.
