Reinette reported the following crash:

If somebody frees the page under us and we hold the last reference to
it, put_page() would attempt to free the page before unlocking it.

The fix is trivial reorder of operations.

Dave said:
 "I came up with the exact same patch.  For posterity, here's the test
  case, generated by syzkaller and trimmed down by Reinette:

  And the config that helps detect this:
