+ * because every f_ep writer excludes a concurrent __fput() on
+ * @file:
+ * - ep_insert() requires the file alive (refcount > 0);
+ * - ep_remove() holds @file pinned via epi_fget() across the
+ * write;
+ * - eventpoll_release_file() runs from __fput() itself.
+ * We are in __fput() here, so none of those can race us: a NULL
+ * observation truly means no epoll path has work left on @file.
