uinput_destroy_device() gets called from two places. In one place, uinput_ioctl_handler() where it is protected under a lock udev->mutex but there is no protection on udev device from freeing inside uinput_release(). This can result in Object-Already-Free case where uinput parent device already got freed while a child being inserted inside it. That result in a double free case for parent while kernfs_put() being done for child in a failure path of adding a node.
