The commit 3ce6b467b9b2 ("memfd: Fix locking when tagging pins") introduces the following warning messages.
*WARNING: suspicious RCU usage in memfd_wait_for_pins*
It is because we still use radix_tree_deref_slot without read_rcu_lock. We should use radix_tree_deref_slot_protected instead in the case.
