initramfs: finish fput() before accessing any binary from initramfs
[ Upstream commit 08865514805d2de8e7002fa8149c5de3e391f412 ]
Commit 4a9d4b024a31 ("switch fput to task_work_add") implements a
schedule_work() for completing fput(), but did not guarantee calling
__fput() after unpacking initramfs. Because of this, there is a
possibility that during boot a driver can see ETXTBSY when it tries to
load a binary from initramfs as fput() is still pending on that binary.
This patch makes sure that fput() is completed after unpacking initramfs
and removes the call to flush_delayed_fput() in kernel_init() which
happens very late after unpacking initramfs.
