9p/fd: fix issue of list_del corruption in p9_fd_cancel()

Syz reported the following issue:
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:53!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN
RIP: 0010:__list_del_entry_valid.cold+0x5c/0x72
Call Trace:
<TASK>

The process is as follows:
Thread A:                       Thread B:
p9_poll_workfn()                p9_client_create()
...                                 ...
    p9_conn_cancel()                p9_fd_cancel()
        list_del()                      ...
        ...                             list_del()  //list_del
                                                      corruption
There is no lock protection when deleting list in p9_conn_cancel(). After
deleting list in Thread A, thread B will delete the same list again. It
will cause issue of list_del corruption.

Setting req->status to REQ_STATUS_ERROR under lock prevents other
cleanup paths from trying to manipulate req_list.
The other thread can safely check req->status because it still holds a
reference to req at this point.
