The current check_memfd_seals() is racy: Since we first do
check_memfd_seals() and then udmabuf_pin_folios() without holding any
relevant lock across both, F_SEAL_WRITE can be set in between.
This is problematic because we can end up holding pins to pages in a
write-sealed memfd.
Fix it using the inode lock, that's probably the easiest way.
In the future, we might want to consider moving this logic into memfd,
especially if anyone else wants to use memfd_pin_folios().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
