From: Pavel Shilovsky <pshilov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 86a7964be7afaf3df6b64faaa10a7032d2444e51 upstream. There is a race between a system call processing thread and the demultiplex thread when mid->resp_buf becomes NULL and later is being accessed to get credits. It happens when the 1st thread wakes up before a mid callback is called in the 2nd one but the mid state has already been set to MID_RESPONSE_RECEIVED. This causes NULL pointer dereference in mid callback. Fix this by saving credits from the response before we update the mid state and then use this value in the mid callback rather then accessing a response buffer.
