From: Jingbo Xu <jefflexu at linux.alibaba.com>

Add missing lock protection in poll routine when iterating xarray,
otherwise:

Even with RCU read lock held, only the slot of the radix tree is
ensured to be pinned there, while the data structure (e.g. struct
cachefiles_req) stored in the slot has no such guarantee.  The poll
routine will iterate the radix tree and dereference cachefiles_req
accordingly.  Thus RCU read lock is not adequate in this case and
spinlock is needed here.

Fixes: b817e22b2e91 ("cachefiles: narrow the scope of triggering EPOLLIN events in ondemand mode")
