    NFSD: simplify error paths in nfsd_svc() · bf320752
    NeilBrown authored
    The error paths in nfsd_svc() are needlessly complex and can result in a
    final call to svc_put() without nfsd_last_thread() being called.  This
    results in the listening sockets not being closed properly.
    
    The per-netns setup provided by nfsd_startup_new() and removed by
    nfsd_shutdown_net() is needed precisely when there are running threads.
    So we don't need nfsd_up_before.  We don't need to know if it *was* up.
    We only need to know if any threads are left.  If none are, then we must
    call nfsd_shutdown_net().  But we don't need to do that explicitly as
    nfsd_last_thread() does that for us.
    
    So simply call nfsd_last_thread() before the last svc_put() if there are
    no running threads.  That will always do the right thing.
    
    Also discard:
     pr_info("nfsd: last server has exited, flushing export cache\n");
    It may not be true if an attempt to start the first server failed, and
    it isn't particularly helpful and it simply reports normal behaviour.
