dead + 1...

void lockref_mark_dead(struct lockref *lockref)
{
        assert_spin_locked(&lockref->lock);
	lockref->count = -128;
}

IOW, a leaked (uncounted) reference to dentry, that got dget() called on
it after dentry had been freed.

	IOW, current->fs->pwd.dentry happens to point to an already freed
struct dentry here.  Joy...

	Could you slap

spin_lock(&current->fs->lock);
WARN_ON(d_count(current->fs->pwd.dentry) < 0);
spin_unlock(&current->fs->lock);

before and after calls of io_issue_sqe() and see if it triggers?  We definitely
are seeing buggered dentry refcounting here.
