io_uring/eventfd: ensure io_eventfd_signal() defers another RCU period

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2106770

Commit c9a4029 upstream.

io_eventfd_do_signal() is invoked from an RCU callback, but when
dropping the reference to the io_ev_fd, it calls io_eventfd_free()
directly if the refcount drops to zero. This isn't correct, as any
potential freeing of the io_ev_fd should be deferred another RCU grace
period.

Just call io_eventfd_put() rather than open-code the dec-and-test and
free, which will correctly defer it another RCU grace period.
