afs: Fix refcounting in callback registration
The refcounting on afs_cb_interest struct objects in afs_register_server_cb_interest() is wrong as it uses the server list entry's call back interest pointer without regard for the fact that it might be replaced at any time and the object thrown away. Fix this by: (1) Put a lock on the afs_server_list struct that can be used to mediate access to the callback interest pointers in the servers array. (2) Keep a ref on the callback interest that we get from the entry. (3) Dropping the old reference held by vnode->cb_interest if we replace the pointer. Fixes: c435ee34551e ("afs: Overhaul the callback handling") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
