David Howells 954cd6dc02 afs: Fix abort on signal while waiting for call completion
Fix the way in which a call that's in progress and being waited for is
aborted in the case that EINTR is detected.  We should be sending
RX_USER_ABORT rather than RX_CALL_DEAD as the abort code.

Note that since the only two ways out of the loop are if the call completes
or if a signal happens, the kill-the-call clause after the loop has
finished can only happen in the case of EINTR.  This means that we only
have one abort case to deal with, not two, and the "KWC" case can never
happen and so can be deleted.

Note further that simply aborting the call isn't necessarily the best thing
here since at this point: the request has been entirely sent and it's
likely the server will do the operation anyway - whether we abort it or
not.  In future, we should punt the handling of the remainder of the call
off to a background thread.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
