Subject: [PATCH net] lib: cpu_rmap: Fix potential use-after-free in
 irq_cpu_rmap_release()

irq_cpu_rmap_release() calls cpu_rmap_put(), which may free the rmap.
So we need to clear the pointer to our glue structure in rmap before
doing that, not after.

Fixes: 4e0473f1060a ("lib: cpu_rmap: Avoid use after free on rmap->obj ...")
Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@...adent.org.uk>

I noticed this issue when reviewing stable changes.  I haven't tested
the change.

Ben.
