There is a potential race/timing issue while aborting the

Okay, but...

...how can this cause the file refcount to underflow? That would
imply that fuse_request_end() will be called for the same request
twice. I can't see how that can happen with or without the locking
change.
Please ignore this patch. i overlooked it as list_splice in
fuse_dev_release() and made the change.
Do you have a reproducer?
don't have exact/specific steps but i will try to recreate. This is
observed during stability testing (involves io, reboot, monkey, e.t.c.)
for 24hrs. So, far this is seen on both 5.15 and 6.1 kernels. Do you
have any points or speculations to share ?
Thanks,
