Chuck Lever 4b196dc6fe xprtrdma: Pre-mark remotely invalidated MRs
There are rare cases where an rpcrdma_req and its matched
rpcrdma_rep can be re-used, via rpcrdma_buffer_put, while the RPC
reply handler is still using that req. This is typically due to a
signal firing at just the wrong instant.

As part of closing this race window, avoid using the wrong
rpcrdma_rep to detect remotely invalidated MRs. Mark MRs as
invalidated while we are sure the rep is still OK to use.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
