This indeed looks like a reasonable scenario where the kernel side
should fix, as a non-malicious daemon could also run into this.

How about reusing &cache->reqs spinlock rather than introducing a new
spinlock, as &cache->reqs spinlock is already held when setting object
to close state in cachefiles_ondemand_fd_release()?

I would like describe more details in the comment, e.g. put the time
sequence described in the commit message here.
