A race condition may occur if the user calls close() on another
thread during a write() operation on the device node of the efi capsule.

This is a race condition that occurs between the efi_capsule_write()
and efi_capsule_flush() functions of efi_capsule_fops,
which ultimately results in UAF.

So, the page freeing process is modified to be done in
efi_capsule_release() instead of efi_capsule_flush().
