Subject[RFC PATCH net v2 0/2] net/smc: Fix for race in smc link group termination
Date
We encountered some crashes recently and they are caused by the
race between the access and free of link/link group in smc link
group termination. The crashes can be reproduced in frequent
abnormal link group termination, like set RNICs up/down.

This set of patches tries to fix this by extending the life cycle
of link/link group to ensure that they won't be referred to after
cleared or freed.

v1->v2
- Declare __smcr_link_clear() as 'static'

Best wishes,
Wen Gu
