If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 0a9a4304f3614e25d9de9b63502ca633c01c0d70 ] If an asynchronous connection attempt completes while another task is in xprt_connect(), then the call to rpc_sleep_on() could end up racing with the call to xprt_wake_pending_tasks(). So add a second test of the connection state after we've put the task to sleep and set the XPRT_CONNECTING flag, when we know that there can be no asynchronous connection attempts still in progress.
