> An erroneous or malicious host could send multiple rescind messages for

> ID to obtain a pointer to the channel object and it eventually releases
> such object and associated data.  The host could time rescind messages
> and lead to an use-after-free.  Add a new flag to the channel structure
> to make sure that only one instance of vmbus_onoffer_rescind() can get
> the reference to the channel object.
