Hi Xiubo,

I would be fine with this patch as is but I'm wondering if it can be
simplified further.  Now that mdsc->mutex is held while sessions array
is populated, is checking s->s_mds against max_sessions actually
needed?  Is it possible for some req->r_session on one of the unsafe
lists to have an "out of bounds" s_mds under mdsc->mutex?

Thanks,

                Ilya
