From 50bd7d5a647bdf533575111c5335f49707c2ce2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shyam Prasad N Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2022 11:16:24 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] cifs: fix race condition with delayed threads On failure to create a new channel, first cancel the delayed threads, which could try to search for this channel, and not find it. The other option was to put the tcp session for the channel first, before decrementing chan_count. But that would leave a reference to the tcp session, when it has been freed already. So going with the former option and cancelling the delayed works first, before rolling back the channel.
