staging: erofs: fix race when the managed cache is enabled
commit 51232df5 upstream. When the managed cache is enabled, the last reference count of a workgroup must be used for its workstation. Otherwise, it could lead to incorrect (un)freezes in the reclaim path, and it would be harmful. A typical race as follows: Thread 1 (In the reclaim path) Thread 2 workgroup_freeze(grp, 1) refcnt = 1 ... workgroup_unfreeze(grp, 1) refcnt = 1 workgroup_get(grp) refcnt = 2 (x) workgroup_put(grp) refcnt = 1 (x) ...unexpected behaviors * grp is detached but still used, which violates cache-managed freeze constraint.
