The -&gt;release_request() callback was designed to allow the transport layer
to do housekeeping after the RPC call is done. It cannot be used to free
the request itself, and doing so leads to a use-after-free bug in
xprt_release().

Remove include of two headers never used by this file.
Doing so exposed a missing #include &lt;linux/types.h&gt; in
include/linux/sunrpc/rpc_rdma.h.

I did not see any other users dependency but if exist they
should be fixed since these headers are totally irrelevant
to here.

<title>SUNRPC: Allow RPCs to fail quickly if the server is unreachable</title>

<id>09a21c4102c8f7893368553273d39c0cadedf9af</id>
<content type='text'>
The kernel sometimes makes RPC calls to services that aren't running.
Because the kernel's RPC client always assumes the hard retry semantic
when reconnecting a connection-oriented RPC transport, the underlying
reconnect logic takes a long while to time out, even though the remote
may have responded immediately with ECONNREFUSED.

In certain cases, like upcalls to our local rpcbind daemon, or for NFS
mount requests, we'd like the kernel to fail immediately if the remote
service isn't reachable.  This allows another transport to be tried
immediately, or the pending request can be abandoned quickly.

Introduce a per-request flag which controls how call_transmit_status()
behaves when request transmission fails because the server cannot be
reached.

We don't want soft connection semantics to apply to other errors.  The
default case of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() no
longer falls through; the fall through code is copied to the default
case, and a "break;" is added.

The transport's connection re-establishment timeout is also ignored for
such requests.  We want the request to fail immediately, so the
reconnect delay is skipped.  Additionally, we don't want a connect
failure here to further increase the reconnect timeout value, since
this request will not be retried.

This helps in an entirely cached workload but not necessarily in
