xprt_destory() claims XPRT_LOCKED and then calls del_timer_sync(). Both xprt_unlock_connect() and xprt_release() call ->release_xprt() which drops XPRT_LOCKED and *then* xprt_schedule_autodisconnect() which calls mod_timer(). This may result in mod_timer() being called *after* del_timer_sync(). When this happens, the timer may fire long after the xprt has been freed, and run_timer_softirq() will probably crash. The pairing of ->release_xprt() and xprt_schedule_autodisconnect() is always called under ->transport_lock. So if we take ->transport_lock to call del_timer_sync(), we can be sure that mod_timer() will run first (if it runs at all).

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
