It's important to note that psi_trigger_destroy() calls
synchronize_rcu() before doing kfree(t), therefore the usage I think
is valid.

Thanks for the patch!
This seems similar to what ep_poll_callback/ep_remove_wait_queue do,
which I think makes sense. CC'ing Oleg Nesterov who implemented
ep_poll_callback/ep_remove_wait_queue logic and Eric Biggers who
worked on wake_up_pollfree() - both much more knowledgeable in this
area than me.
One issue I see with this patch is that the title says "sched/psi:
..." while it's fixing polling functionality. The patch is fixing the
mechanism used by psi triggers, not psi triggers themselves (well it
does but indirectly). Therefore I suggest changing that prefix to
something like "select: Fix use-after-free in poll_freewait()"
Thanks,
Suren.
