Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/6] tipc: refcount and memory leak fixes

From: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@...csson.com>

v2: Drop specific -ENOMEM logging in patch #1 (tipc: allow connection
    shutdown callback to be invoked in advance) And add a general error
    message if an internal server tries to send a message on a
    closed/nonexisting connection.

In addition to the fix for refcount leak and memory leak during
module removal, we also fix a problem where the topology server
listening socket where unexpectedly closed. We also eliminate an
unnecessary context switch during accept()/recvmsg() for nonblocking
sockets.

The following should be applied on stable aswell:
tipc: allow connection shutdown callback to be invoked in advance
tipc: fix connection refcount leak
tipc: drop subscriber connection id invalidation

We'd also like to have the fixes for memleak during module removal
in stable aswell, but unfortunately they won't apply cleanly on the
net tree:
tipc: fix memory leak during module removal
tipc: don't log disabled tasklet handler errors

Erik Hugne (3):
  tipc: drop subscriber connection id invalidation
  tipc: fix memory leak during module removal
  tipc: don't log disabled tasklet handler errors

Ying Xue (3):
  tipc: allow connection shutdown callback to be invoked in advance
  tipc: fix connection refcount leak
  tipc: avoid to unnecessary process switch under non-block mode
