Subject: [PATCH 107/270] libceph: just set SOCK_CLOSED when state changes

3.5.7u1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alex Elder <elder@...tank.com>

commit d65c9e0b9eb43d14ece9dd843506ccba06162ee7 upstream.

When a TCP_CLOSE or TCP_CLOSE_WAIT event occurs, the SOCK_CLOSED
connection flag bit is set, and if it had not been previously set
queue_con() is called to ensure con_work() will get a chance to
handle the changed state.

con_work() atomically checks--and if set, clears--the SOCK_CLOSED
bit if it was set.  This means that even if the bit were set
repeatedly, the related processing in con_work() only gets called
once per transition of the bit from 0 to 1.

What's important then is that we ensure con_work() gets called *at
least* once when a socket close event occurs, not that it gets
called *exactly* once.

The work queue mechanism already takes care of queueing work
only if it is not already queued, so there's no need for us
to call queue_con() conditionally.

So this patch just makes it so the SOCK_CLOSED flag gets set
unconditionally in ceph_sock_state_change().
