If a non-root cgroup gets removed when there is a thread that registered trigger and is polling on a pressure file within the cgroup, the polling waitqueue gets freed without clearing the queue and reference, then it can result in use-after-free as below. Use wake_up_pollfree() instead to ensure that the queue and reference are cleared before freeing.
