[PATCH] fs/fcntl: fix SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in send_sigio()

[w15303746062@163.com]

From: Mingyu Wang <25181214217@stu.xidian.edu.cn>

A SOFTIRQ-safe to SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order deadlock can occur in
send_sigio() when a process group receives a SIGIO.

When FASYNC is configured for a process group (PIDTYPE_PGID),
send_sigio() uses read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to traverse the task
list. However, send_sigio() is often called from softirq context
(e.g., input_inject_event -> kill_fasync), where it already holds
SOFTIRQ-safe locks like &dev->event_lock and &f_owner->lock.

The deadlock is caused by the rwlock writer fairness mechanism:
1. CPU 0 (process context) holds read_lock(&tasklist_lock) in do_wait().
2. CPU 1 (process context) attempts write_lock(&tasklist_lock) in
   fork() or exit() and spins, which blocks all new readers.
3. CPU 0 is interrupted by a softirq (e.g., keyboard input event).
4. The softirq calls send_sigio() and attempts to acquire
   read_lock(&tasklist_lock), deadlocking because CPU 1 is waiting.

Since PID hashing and do_each_pid_task() traversals are already
RCU-protected, the read_lock on tasklist_lock is no longer strictly
required for safe traversal. Fix this by replacing tasklist_lock with
rcu_read_lock(), aligning the process group signaling path with the
single-PID path.

Lockdep splat:
=====================================================
WARNING: SOFTIRQ-safe -> SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order detected
[...]
Chain exists of:
  &dev->event_lock --> &f_owner->lock --> tasklist_lock

Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(tasklist_lock);
                           local_irq_disable();
                           lock(&dev->event_lock);
                           lock(&f_owner->lock);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(&dev->event_lock);
