Subject: [PATCH 4.19 28/67] SUNRPC: Fix a potential race in xprt_connect()

4.19-stable review patch.  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.

Fixes: 0b9e79431377d ("SUNRPC: Move the test for XPRT_CONNECTING into...")
