I can't find how this can happen, the lists here are serialized by
struct_mutex. (The poison would indicate that the elements p->dfs_link
points to are freed, not p itself.) If you could run with lockdep (to
verify that the locks are indeed held here) and kasan to find the
alloc/free of the struct being used-after-free, that would be extremely
valuable.
