Subject: SUNRPC: Avoid deep recursion in rpc_release_client
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d07ba8422f1e58be94cc98a1f475946dc1b89f1b;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

SUNRPC: Avoid deep recursion in rpc_release_client

In cases where an rpc client has a parent hierarchy, then
rpc_free_client may end up calling rpc_release_client() on the
parent, thus recursing back into rpc_free_client. If the hierarchy
is deep enough, then we can get into situations where the stack
simply overflows.

The fix is to have rpc_release_client() loop so that it can take
care of the parent rpc client hierarchy without needing to
recurse.
