afs: Fix vlserver record corruption
Because I made the afs_call struct share pointers to an afs_server object and an afs_vlserver object to save space, afs_put_call() calls afs_put_server() on afs_vlserver object (which is only meant for the afs_server object) because it sees that call->server isn't NULL. This means that the afs_vlserver object gets unpredictably and randomly modified, depending on what config options are set (such as lockdep). Fix this by getting rid of the union and having two non-overlapping pointers in the afs_call struct. Fixes: ffba718e9354 ("afs: Get rid of afs_call::reply[]") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
