[PATCH] fsnotify: fix inode reference leak in fsnotify_recalc_mask()

["Xin Yin" <yinxin.x@bytedance.com>]

fsnotify_recalc_mask() fails to handle the return value of
__fsnotify_recalc_mask(), which may return an inode pointer that needs
to be released via fsnotify_drop_object() when the connector's HAS_IREF
flag transitions from set to cleared.

This manifests as a hung task with the following call trace:

  INFO: task umount:1234 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
  Call Trace:
   __schedule
   schedule
   fsnotify_sb_delete
   generic_shutdown_super
   kill_anon_super
   cleanup_mnt
   task_work_run
   do_exit
   do_group_exit

The race window that triggers the iref leak:

  Thread A (adding mark)              Thread B (removing mark)
  ──────────────────────              ────────────────────────
  fsnotify_add_mark_locked():
    fsnotify_add_mark_list():
      spin_lock(conn->lock)
      add mark_B(evictable) to list
      spin_unlock(conn->lock)
    return

    /* ---- gap: no lock held ---- */

                                      fsnotify_detach_mark(mark_A):
                                        spin_lock(mark_A->lock)
                                        clear ATTACHED flag on mark_A
                                        spin_unlock(mark_A->lock)

    fsnotify_recalc_mask():
      spin_lock(conn->lock)
      __fsnotify_recalc_mask():
        /* mark_A skipped: ATTACHED cleared */
        /* only mark_B(evictable) remains */
        want_iref = false
        has_iref = true  /* not yet cleared */
        -> HAS_IREF transitions true -> false
        -> returns inode pointer
      spin_unlock(conn->lock)
      /* BUG: return value discarded!
       * iput() and fsnotify_put_sb_watched_objects()
       * are never called */

Fix this by capturing the return value of __fsnotify_recalc_mask() and
passing it to fsnotify_drop_object() after releasing the spinlock, which
is the same pattern used in fsnotify_put_mark().
