In rxrpc_destroy_all_calls(), there are two phases: (1) make sure the
->calls list is empty, emitting error messages if not, and (2) wait for the
RCU cleanup to happen on outstanding calls (ie. ->nr_calls becomes 0).
To avoid taking the call_lock, the function prechecks ->calls and if empty,
it returns to avoid taking the lock - this is wrong, however: it still
needs to go and do the second phase and wait for ->nr_calls to become 0.
Without this, the rxrpc_net struct may get deallocated before we get to the
RCU cleanup for the last calls. This can lead to:
Slab corruption (Not tainted): kmalloc-16k start=ffff88802b178000, len=16384
050: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 61 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkakkkkkkk
Note the "61" at offset 0x58. This corresponds to the ->nr_calls member of
struct rxrpc_net (which is >9k in size, and thus allocated out of the 16k
slab).
Fix this by flipping the condition on the if-statement, putting the locked
section inside the if-body and dropping the return from there. The
function will then always go on to wait for the RCU cleanup on outstanding
calls.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
