[ Upstream commit 8692cefc433f282228fd44938dd4d26ed38254a2 ]
When client on the host tries to connect(SOCK_STREAM, O_NONBLOCK) to the server on the guest, there will be a panic on a ThunderX2 (armv8a server):

The race condition is as follows: Task1 Task2 ===== ===== __sock_release virtio_transport_recv_pkt __vsock_release vsock_find_bound_socket (found sk) lock_sock_nested vsock_remove_sock sock_orphan sk_set_socket(sk, NULL) sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK ... release_sock lock_sock virtio_transport_recv_connecting sk->sk_socket->state (panic!)
The root cause is that vsock_find_bound_socket can't hold the lock_sock, so there is a small race window between vsock_find_bound_socket() and lock_sock(). If __vsock_release() is running in another task, sk->sk_socket will be set to NULL inadvertently.
This fixes it by checking sk->sk_shutdown(suggested by Stefano) after lock_sock since sk->sk_shutdown is set to SHUTDOWN_MASK under the protection of lock_sock_nested.
