poll_add can have req->work initialised, which will be overwritten in __io_arm_poll_handler() because of the union. Luckily, hash_node is zeroed in the end, so the damage is limited to lost put for work.creds, and probably corrupted work.list. That's the easiest and really dirty fix, which rearranges members in the union, arm_poll*() modifies and zeroes only work.files and work.mm, which are never taken for poll add. note: io_kiocb is exactly 4 cachelines now.
