We could end up executing rds_conn_shutdown before the rds_recv_worker
thread, then rds_conn_shutdown -> rds_tcp_conn_shutdown can do a
sock_release and set sock->sk to null, which may interleave in bad
ways with rds_recv_worker, e.g., it could result in:
"BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000078"
[ffff881769f6fd70] release_sock at ffffffff815f337b
[ffff881769f6fd90] rds_tcp_recv at ffffffffa043c888 [rds_tcp]
[ffff881769f6fdb0] rds_recv_worker at ffffffffa04a4810 [rds]
[ffff881769f6fde0] process_one_work at ffffffff810a14c1
[ffff881769f6fe40] worker_thread at ffffffff810a1940
[ffff881769f6fec0] kthread at ffffffff810a6b1e
Also, do not enqueue any new shutdown workq items when the connection is
shutting down (this may happen for rds-tcp in softirq mode, if a FIN
or CLOSE is received while the modules is in the middle of an unload)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
