From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7d8e8f3433dc8d1dc87c1aabe73a154978fb4c4d ] The lifetime of the Rx listener item ('rxl_item') is managed using RCU, but is dereferenced outside of RCU read-side critical section, which can lead to a use-after-free. Fix this by increasing the scope of the RCU read-side critical section.
