Subject: Regression: SUNRPC: Use poll() to fix up the socket requeue races

Hi Trond,

Starting in next-20190222 I have observed a regression with NFS causing
some of our boards to fail to boot. Bisect points to your commit ...

    SUNRPC: Use poll() to fix up the socket requeue races

After reverting this on top of -next I no longer see the problem. I have
not had chance to look any closer, but wanted to see if you had any
ideas what might be the problem.

Cheers
Jon
