[ Upstream commit 43e33924c38e8faeb0c12035481cb150e602e39d ]

Deleting list entry within hlist_for_each_entry_safe is not safe unless
next pointer (tmp) is protected too. It's not, because once hash_lock
is released, cache_clean may delete the entry that tmp points to. Then
cache_purge can walk to a deleted entry and tries to double free it.

Fix this bug by holding only the deleted entry's reference.
