[PATCH] [V9fs-developer] [PATCH] /net/9p/trans_fd.c: fix race-condition by flushing workqueue before the kfree()

[Tomas Bortoli]

The patch adds the flush in p9_mux_poll_stop() as it the function used by
p9_conn_destroy(), in turn called by p9_fd_close() to stop the async
polling associated with the data regarding the connection.

As shown by Syzbot, it is possible to provoke a race between p9_fd_close() 
and p9_poll_workfn() that is called to take care of the async read/write work
to do. To make sure p9_fd_close() frees "trans" when it is not used anymore, 
it has to explicitly flush p9_poll_work before the kfree().
