RDS: have sockets get transport module references
Right now there's nothing to stop the various paths that use rs->rs_transport from racing with rmmod and executing freed transport code. The simple fix is to have binding to a transport also hold a reference to the transport's module, removing this class of races. We already had an unused t_owner field which was set for the modular transports and which wasn't set for the built-in loop transport. Signed-off-by: Zach Brown <zach.brown@oracle.com>
