Fix a use-after-free noticed by running with KASAN enabled. If
rmi_irq_fn() is run twice in a row, then rmi_f11_attention() (among
others) will end up reading from drvdata->attn_data.data, which was
freed and left dangling in rmi_irq_fn().

Commit 55edde9fff1a ("Input: synaptics-rmi4 - prevent UAF reported by
KASAN") correctly identified and analyzed this bug. However the attempted
fix only NULLed out a local variable, missing the fact that
drvdata->attn_data is a struct, not a pointer.

NULL out the correct pointer in the driver data to prevent the attention
functions from copying from it.

Fixes: 55edde9fff1a ("Input: synaptics-rmi4 - prevent UAF reported by KASAN")
Fixes: b908d3cd812a ("Input: synaptics-rmi4 - allow to add attention data")

Ugh, this is all kind of ugly, but I guess that's what we have now.
Applied, thank you.

Thanks Dmitry. There are other bits that sketch me out in here as
well, but I didn't get a chance to really figure out if they're a
problem. We call rmi_process_interrupt_requests(), which results in
reads from that same attn_data.data pointer, in a few different
places. Some of those calls are outside the irq handling path, like
the in rmi_enable_irq() and rmi_enable_sensor(). Can they race with
the irq handling path? (Meaning they'd be doing those attn_data.data
reads as rmi_irq_fn() is kfreeing the data?) There are a smattering of
mutexes around, but I'm not sure if they're trying to protect this.

If I can find some time I'll try to submit a patch. Anyone is welcome
to beat me to it though.
