[PATCH 4.18 129/171] NFSv4: Dont exit the state manager without clearing NFS4CLNT_MANAGER_RUNNING

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 19 2018 - 11:44:56 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 21a446cf186570168b7281b154b1993968598aca upstream.

If we exit the NFSv4 state manager due to a umount, then we can end up
leaving the NFS4CLNT_MANAGER_RUNNING flag set. If another mount causes
the nfs4_client to be rereferenced before it is destroyed, then we end
up never being able to recover state.

Fixes: 47c2199b6eb5 ("NFSv4.1: Ensure state manager thread dies on last ...")
