> io_eventfd_do_signal() is invoked from an RCU callback, but when dropping the
> reference to the io_ev_fd, it calls io_eventfd_free() directly if the refcount
> drops to zero. This isn't correct, as any potential freeing of the io_ev_fd should

> Just call io_eventfd_put() rather than open-code the dec-and-test and free,
> which will correctly defer it another RCU grace period.
