svcrpc: fix list-corrupting race on nfsd shutdown
[ upstream commit ebc63e531cc6a457595dd110b07ac530eae788c3 ]
After commit 3262c816a3d7fb1eaabce633caa317887ed549ae "[PATCH] knfsd:
split svc_serv into pools", svc_delete_xprt (then svc_delete_socket) no
longer removed its xpt_ready (then sk_ready) field from whatever list it
was on, noting that there was no point since the whole list was about to
be destroyed anyway.
That was mostly true, but forgot that a few svc_xprt_enqueue()'s might
still be hanging around playing with the about-to-be-destroyed list, and
could get themselves into trouble writing to freed memory if we left
this xprt on the list after freeing it.
(This is actually functionally identical to a patch made first by Ben
Greear, but with more comments.)
