David Howells 5273a191dc rxrpc: Fix NULL pointer deref due to call->conn being cleared on disconnect
When a call is disconnected, the connection pointer from the call is
cleared to make sure it isn't used again and to prevent further attempted
transmission for the call.  Unfortunately, there might be a daemon trying
to use it at the same time to transmit a packet.

Fix this by keeping call->conn set, but setting a flag on the call to
indicate disconnection instead.

Remove also the bits in the transmission functions where the conn pointer is
checked and a ref taken under spinlock as this is now redundant.

Fixes: 8d94aa381d ("rxrpc: Calls shouldn't hold socket refs")

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.
