afs: Fix missing lock when replacing VL server list
When afs_update_cell() replaces the cell->vl_servers list, it uses RCU protocol so that proc is protected, but doesn't take ->vl_servers_lock to protect afs_start_vl_iteration() (which does actually take a shared lock). Fix this by making afs_update_cell() take an exclusive lock when replacing ->vl_servers. Fixes: 0a5143f2f89c ("afs: Implement VL server rotation") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
