[ Upstream commit 0755d3be2d9bb6ea38598ccd30d6bbaa1a5c3a50 ] The sk_user_data pointer is supposed to be modified only while holding the write_lock "sk_callback_lock", otherwise we could race with other threads and crash the kernel. we can't take the write_lock in nvmet_tcp_state_change() because it would cause a deadlock, but the release_work queue will set the pointer to NULL later so we can simply remove the assignment.

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.
