SUNRPC: close a rare race in xs_tcp_setup_socket.
We have one report of a crash in xs_tcp_setup_socket.
The call path to the crash is:
xs_tcp_setup_socket -> inet_stream_connect -> lock_sock_nested.
The 'sock' passed to that last function is NULL.
The only way I can see this happening is a concurrent call to
xs_close:
xs_close -> xs_reset_transport -> sock_release -> inet_release
inet_release sets:
sock->sk = NULL;
inet_stream_connect calls
lock_sock(sock->sk);
which gets NULL.
All calls to xs_close are protected by XPRT_LOCKED as are most
activations of the workqueue which runs xs_tcp_setup_socket.
The exception is xs_tcp_schedule_linger_timeout.
So presumably the timeout queued by the later fires exactly when some
other code runs xs_close().
To protect against this we can move the cancel_delayed_work_sync()
call from xs_destory() to xs_close().
As xs_close is never called from the worker scheduled on
->connect_worker, this can never deadlock.
