Each rpc_client has a cl_clid which is allocated from a global ida, and a debugfs directory which is named after cl_clid. We're releasing the cl_clid before we free the debugfs directory named after it. As soon as the cl_clid is released, that value is available for another newly created client. That leaves a window where another client may attempt to create a new debugfs directory with the same name as the not-yet-deleted debugfs directory from the dying client. Symptoms are log messages like Directory 4 with parent 'rpc_clnt' already present! Fixes: 7c4310ff5642 "SUNRPC: defer slow parts of rpc_free_client() to a workqueue." Signed-off-by: J.

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.
