Hello.
syzbot is hitting use-after-free bug in uinput module. It seems that
syzbot is hitting this bug from cdev_put() path when closing a character
file. But since I can't reproduce the problem, I used a debug patch which
raises the refcount as if the character device file is open()ed before
uinput_destroy_device() is called.

----------------------------------------
I can sometimes observe WARN_ON() because input_put_device() drops the
refcount to 0.

Subject: [PATCH] Input: uinput - Set name/phys to NULL after kfree().
syzbot is hitting use-after-free bug in uinput module [1]. This is because
uinput_destroy_device() sometimes kfree()s dev->name and dev->phys at
uinput_destroy_device() before dev_uevent() is triggered by dropping the
refcount to 0. Since the timing of triggering last input_put_device() is
uncontrollable, this patch prepares for such race by setting dev->name and
dev->phys to NULL before doing operations which might drop the refcount
to 0.
