staging: erofs: fix race when the managed cache is enabled
When the managed cache is enabled, the last reference count
of a workgroup must be used for its workstation.
Otherwise, it could lead to incorrect (un)freezes in
the reclaim path, and it would be harmful.
A typical race as follows:
Thread 1 (In the reclaim path) Thread 2
workgroup_freeze(grp, 1) refcnt = 1
...
workgroup_unfreeze(grp, 1) refcnt = 1
workgroup_get(grp) refcnt = 2 (x)
workgroup_put(grp) refcnt = 1 (x)
...unexpected behaviors
* grp is detached but still used, which violates cache-managed
freeze constraint.
