Subject: [PATCH net] can: j1939: fix errant WARN_ON_ONCE in j1939_session_deactivate

The conclusion "j1939_session_deactivate() should be called with a
session ref-count of at least 2" is incorrect. In some concurrent
scenarios, j1939_session_deactivate can be called with the session
ref-count less than 2. But there is not any problem because it
will check the session active state before session putting in
j1939_session_deactivate_locked().

Here is the concurrent scenario of the problem reported by syzbot
and my reproduction log.

        cpu0                            cpu1
                                j1939_xtp_rx_eoma
j1939_xtp_rx_abort_one
                                j1939_session_get_by_addr [kref == 2]
j1939_session_get_by_addr [kref == 3]
j1939_session_deactivate [kref == 2]
j1939_session_put [kref == 1]
				j1939_session_completed
				j1939_session_deactivate
				WARN_ON_ONCE(kref < 2)
