Title:
  tight loop in rpc_async_schedule and xs_tcp_setup_socket

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a runaway kworker process on my box this morning:

  $ top -b -n 1 | grep kworker/1:2
   1403 root      20   0       0      0      0 R 100.0  0.0 472:39.22 kworker/1:2

  To debug, I performed the following:

  # echo workqueue:workqueue_queue_work > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe >/tmp/out.txt

  And this reveals to me:

       kworker/1:2-1403  [001] d.s. 28777.162387: workqueue_queue_work: work struct=ffff88021f630788 function=rpc_async_schedule [sunrpc] workqueue=ffff8807fb77c800 req_cpu=256 cpu=1
       kworker/1:2-1403  [001] d... 28777.162387: workqueue_queue_work: work struct=ffff8807d8511de0 function=xs_tcp_setup_socket [sunrpc] workqueue=ffff8807fb77c800 req_cpu=256 cpu=1

       kworker/1:2-1403  [001] d.s. 28777.162393: workqueue_queue_work: work struct=ffff88021f630788 function=rpc_async_schedule [sunrpc] workqueue=ffff8807fb77c800 req_cpu=256 cpu=1
       kworker/1:2-1403  [001] d... 28777.162393: workqueue_queue_work: work struct=ffff8807d8511de0 function=xs_tcp_setup_socket [sunrpc] workqueue=ffff8807fb77c800 req_cpu=256 cpu=1

  This cycle seems to be repeating indefinitely in a tight loop.
