rxrpc: Fix locking issue
There's a locking issue with the per-netns list of calls in rxrpc. The
pieces of code that add and remove a call from the list use write_lock()
and the calls procfile uses read_lock() to access it. However, the timer
callback function may trigger a removal by trying to queue a call for
processing and finding that it's already queued - at which point it has a
spare refcount that it has to do something with. Unfortunately, if it puts
the call and this reduces the refcount to 0, the call will be removed from
the list. Unfortunately, since the _bh variants of the locking functions
aren't used, this can deadlock.
