Hi,
    My static analyzer tool reported a use after free in fsnotify_put_mark_wake
of the file: fs/notify/mark.c.

In fsnotify_put_mark_wake, it calls fsnotify_put_mark(mark). Inside the function
fsnotify_put_mark(), if conn is NULL, it will call 
fsnotify_final_mark_destroy(mark)
to free mark->group by fsnotify_put_group(group) and return. I also had 
inspected
the implementation of fsnotify_put_group() and found that there is no cleanup 
operation
about group->user_waits.

But after fsnotify_put_mark_wake() returned, mark->group is still used by 
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&group->user_waits) && group->shutdown) and later.

Is this an issue?

Thanks.
