[PATCH 4/4] sunrpc: lock xprt before trying to set memalloc on the sockets

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Sat May 30 2015 - 08:04:05 EST


It's possible that we could race with a call to xs_reset_transport, in
which case the xprt->inet pointer could be zeroed out while we're
accessing it. Lock the xprt before we try to set memalloc on it.
