David Howells 60034d3d14 rxrpc: Fix potential deadlock
There is a potential deadlock in rxrpc_peer_keepalive_dispatch() whereby
rxrpc_put_peer() is called with the peer_hash_lock held, but if it reduces
the peer's refcount to 0, rxrpc_put_peer() calls __rxrpc_put_peer() - which
the tries to take the already held lock.

Fix this by providing a version of rxrpc_put_peer() that can be called in
situations where the lock is already held.

The bug may produce the following lockdep report:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
