From: Xiubo Li <xiubli@xxxxxxxxxx> Changed in V2: - do not check the caps when reconnecting to mds - switch ceph_async_check_caps() to ceph_async_put_cap_refs() Changed in V3: - fix putting the cap refs leak By adding the put_cap_refs's queue work we can avoid the 'mdsc->mutex' and 'session->s_mutex' double lock issue and also the dead lock issue of them. There at least 10+ places have the above issues and most of them are caused by calling the ceph_mdsc_put_request() when releasing the 'req'.
