was detected, and the added dentry was having d_invalidate() called
on it, but the deletion of the directory was also calling
d_invalidate() on that same dentry.
- A fix to not free the eventfs_inode (ei) until the last dput() was
called on its ei->dentry made the ei->dentry exist even after it
was marked for free by setting the ei->is_freed. But code elsewhere
still was checking if ei->dentry was NULL if ei->is_freed is set
and would trigger WARN_ON if that was the case. That's no longer
