memfd: Use radix_tree_deref_slot_protected to avoid the warning.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The commit 391d4ee ("memfd: Fix locking when tagging pins")
introduces the following warning messages.

*WARNING: suspicious RCU usage in memfd_wait_for_pins*

It is because we still use radix_tree_deref_slot without read_rcu_lock.
We should use radix_tree_deref_slot_protected instead in the case.
