[RFC PATCH 12/13] vsock: prevent transport modules unloading

From: Stefano Garzarella
Date: Fri Sep 27 2019 - 07:28:46 EST


This patch adds 'module' member in the 'struct vsock_transport'
in order to get/put the transport module. This prevents the
module unloading while sockets are assigned to it.

We increase the module refcnt when a socket is assigned to a
transport, and we decrease the module refcnt when the socket
is destructed.
