[PATCH net 2/2] rxrpc: Fix the rxrpc_connection attend queue handling

From: David Howells
Date: Mon Feb 03 2025 - 06:04:39 EST


The rxrpc_connection attend queue is never used because conn::attend_link
is never initialised and so is always NULL'd out and thus always appears to
be busy. This requires the following fix:

(1) Fix this the attend queue problem by initialising conn::attend_link.

And, consequently, two further fixes for things masked by the above bug:

(2) Fix rxrpc_input_conn_event() to handle being invoked with a NULL
sk_buff pointer - something that can now happen with the above change.

(3) Fix the RXRPC_SKB_MARK_SERVICE_CONN_SECURED message to carry a pointer
to the connection and a ref on it.
