kernfs: Check KERNFS_HAS_RELEASE before calling kernfs_release_file()
Recently started seeing a kernel oops when a module tries removing a
memory mapped sysfs bin_attribute. On closer investigation the root
cause seems to be kernfs_release_file() trying to call
kernfs_op.release() callback that's NULL for such sysfs
bin_attributes. The oops occurs when kernfs_release_file() is called from
kernfs_drain_open_files() to cleanup any open handles with active
memory mappings.
The patch fixes this by checking for flag KERNFS_HAS_RELEASE before
calling kernfs_release_file() in function kernfs_drain_open_files().
On ppc64-le arch with cxl module the oops back-trace is of the
form below:
[ 861.381126] Unable to handle kernel paging request for instruction fetch
[ 861.381360] Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
