afs: Fix clearance of reply
The recent patch to fix the afs_server struct leak didn't actually fix the bug, but rather fixed some of the symptoms. The problem is that an asynchronous call that holds a resource pointed to by call->reply[0] will find the pointer cleared in the call destructor, thereby preventing the resource from being cleaned up. In the case of the server record leak, the afs_fs_get_capabilities() function in devel code sets up a call with reply[0] pointing at the server record that should be altered when the result is obtained, but this was being cleared before the destructor was called, so the put in the destructor does nothing and the record is leaked. Commitf014ffb025
removed the additional ref obtained by afs_install_server(), but the removal of this ref is actually used by the garbage collector to mark a server record as being defunct after the record has expired through lack of use. The offending clearance of call->reply[0] upon completion in afs_process_async_call() has been there from the origin of the code, but none of the asynchronous calls actually use that pointer currently, so it should be safe to remove (note that synchronous calls don't involve this function). Fix this by the following means: (1) Revert commitf014ffb025
. (2) Remove the clearance of reply[0] from afs_process_async_call(). Without this, afs_manage_servers() will suffer an assertion failure if it sees a server record that didn't get used because the usage count is not 1. Fixes:f014ffb025
