Hi Rob,

I suspect the following one-line patch should fix the problem.

Cheers

This appears to be caused by the function rpc_verify_header() first
calling xprt_release(), then doing a call_refresh. If we release the
transport slot, we should _always_ jump back to call_reserve before
calling anything else.
