We got the following issue in a fuzz test of randomly issuing the restore
command:

Following is the process that triggers the issue:

                                    REQ_A = cachefiles_ondemand_select_req

             write(devfd, ("copen %u,%llu", msg->msg_id, size));
             cachefiles_ondemand_copen
              xa_erase(&cache->reqs, id)
              complete(&REQ_A->done)
   kfree(REQ_A)
                                    cachefiles_ondemand_get_fd(REQ_A)
                                     fd = get_unused_fd_flags
                                     file = anon_inode_getfile
                                     fd_install(fd, file)
                                     load = (void *)REQ_A->msg.data;
                                     load->fd = fd;
                                     // load UAF !!!

This issue is caused by issuing a restore command when the daemon is still
alive, which results in a request being processed multiple times thus
triggering a UAF. So to avoid this problem, add an additional reference
count to cachefiles_req, which is held while waiting and reading, and then
released when the waiting and reading is over.

Note that since there is only one reference count for waiting, we need to
avoid the same request being completed multiple times, so we can only
complete the request if it is successfully removed from the xarray.
