So, the problem with this patch is that you're deliberately
circumventing the process of locking the socket. That's not going to
work.
What you could do is follow the example set by xprt_destroy() and
xs_enable_swap(), to call wait_on_bit_lock() when there is no task.
That should work, but you'd better make sure that your process holds a
reference to the xprt->kref before doing that, or else you could easily
end up deadlocking with xprt_destroy().
