[PATCH 084/270] libceph: drop connection refcounting for mon_client

From: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Date: Mon Nov 26 2012 - 12:04:57 EST


3.5.7u1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sage Weil <sage@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ec87ef4309d33bd9c87a53bb5152a86ae7a65f25 upstream.

All references to the embedded ceph_connection come from the msgr
workqueue, which is drained prior to mon_client destruction. That
means we can ignore con refcounting entirely.
