Subject: [PATCH v2 11/12] cachefiles: flush all requests after setting CACHEFILES_DEAD

From: Baokun Li <libaokun1@...wei.com>

In ondemand mode, when the daemon is processing an open request, if the
kernel flags the cache as CACHEFILES_DEAD, the cachefiles_daemon_write()
will always return -EIO, so the daemon can't pass the copen to the kernel.
Then the kernel process that is waiting for the copen triggers a hung_task.

Since the DEAD state is irreversible, it can only be exited by closing
/dev/cachefiles. Therefore, after calling cachefiles_io_error() to mark
the cache as CACHEFILES_DEAD, if in ondemand mode, flush all requests to
avoid the above hungtask. We may still be able to read some of the cached
data before closing the fd of /dev/cachefiles.

Note that this relies on the patch that adds reference counting to the req,
otherwise it may UAF.

Fixes: c8383054506c ("cachefiles: notify the user daemon when looking up cookie")
