Commit d532cddb6c60 ("nbd: Reclassify sockets to avoid lockdep circular
dependency") introduced nbd_reclassify_socket() to prevent lockdep false
positives when NBD sockets are used in memory reclaim paths. While
nbd_add_socket() reclassifies newly added sockets,
nbd_genl_reconnect_sock_cb() omitted this call when replacing dead
sockets during reconnection. Consequently, reconnected sockets retain
the generic socket lockdep class and trigger false-positive lockdep
reports.
Fix this by reclassifying the replacement socket in
nbd_genl_reconnect_sock_cb().
Fixes: d532cddb6c60 ("nbd: Reclassify sockets to avoid lockdep circular dependency")
