svcrpc: modifying valid sunrpc cache entries is racy
Once a sunrpc cache entry is VALID, we should be replacing it (and allowing any concurrent users to destroy it on last put) instead of trying to update it in place. Otherwise someone referencing the ip_map we're modifying here could try to use the m_client just as we're putting the last reference. The bug should only be seen by users of the legacy nfsd interfaces. (Thanks to Neil for suggestion to use sunrpc_invalidate.) Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.
