Just had an offline discussion with santosh around this, here's a summary
of that discussion for the archives:

Looks like an rds_connect_worker workq got scheduled after the 
netns was deleted. This could happen if an an rds_connection got
added between lines 528 and 529 of 

  506 static void rds_tcp_kill_sock(struct net *net)
  :
  /* code to pull out all the rds_connections that should be destroyed */
  :
  528         spin_unlock_irq(&rds_tcp_conn_lock);
  529         list_for_each_entry_safe(tc, _tc, &tmp_list, t_tcp_node)
  530                 rds_conn_destroy(tc->t_cpath->cp_conn);

Such an rds_connection would miss out the rds_conn_destroy() 
loop (that cancels all pending work) and (if it was scheduled
after netns deletion) could trigger the use-after-free.

Evaluating various fixes for this (including using _bh instead of _irq
as suggested by santosh), I'll get back with a patch soon.
