If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c851d4228ba0023c831723611d79cfed6cd006f1 Author: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri May 6 23:55:21 2022 +0100 rxrpc: Fix local destruction being repeated [ Upstream commit d3d863036d688313f8d566b87acd7d99daf82749 ] If the local processor work item for the rxrpc local endpoint gets requeued by an event (such as an incoming packet) between it getting scheduled for destruction and the UDP socket being closed, the rxrpc_local_destroyer() function can get run twice. The second time it can hang because it can end up waiting for cleanup events that will never happen.
