The reason why we generally don't want to time out is that the call to xprt->ops->release_xprt() will trigger a connection reset, which isn't helpful... Let's make an exception for soft RPC calls, since they have to provide timeout guarantees. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
