[PATCH] io-wq: clear node->next on list deletion

[PATCH] io-wq: clear node->next on list deletion

[Jens Axboe]

If someone removes a node from a list, and then later adds it back to
a list, we can have invalid data in ->next. This can cause all sorts
of issues. One such use case is the IORING_OP_POLL_ADD command, which
will do just that if we race and get woken twice without any pending
events. This is a pretty rare case, but can happen under extreme loads.
Dan reports that he saw the following crash:

when running a networked workload with about 5000 sockets being polled
for. Fix this by clearing node->next when the node is being removed from
the list.
