    SUNRPC: change how svc threads are asked to exit. · fa341560
    NeilBrown authored
    svc threads are currently stopped using kthread_stop().  This requires
    identifying a specific thread.  However we don't care which thread
    stops, just as long as one does.
    
    So instead, set a flag in the svc_pool to say that a thread needs to
    die, and have each thread check this flag instead of calling
    kthread_should_stop().  The first thread to find and clear this flag
    then moves towards exiting.
    
    This removes an explicit dependency on sp_all_threads which will make a
    future patch simpler.
