From: Maurizio Lombardi <mlombard@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0755d3be2d9bb6ea38598ccd30d6bbaa1a5c3a50 ] The sk_user_data pointer is supposed to be modified only while holding the write_lock "sk_callback_lock", otherwise we could race with other threads and crash the kernel. we can't take the write_lock in nvmet_tcp_state_change() because it would cause a deadlock, but the release_work queue will set the pointer to NULL later so we can simply remove the assignment.
