Once nfsd has shut down,\nnfs4_state_destroy_net() has freed nn->conf_id_hashtbl but left the\npointer intact, so the cancel helper iterates freed slab memory as an\narray of struct list_head and then dereferences a bogus nfs4_client\nwhen it takes clp->async_lock. A local administrator holding\nCAP_SYS_ADMIN can reach this use-after-free by stopping the server and\nthen writing to unlock_filesystem; KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free\nread in nfsd4_cancel_copy_by_sb().\n\nnfsd4_revoke_states() walks the same state tables and for that reason\nalready runs only under nfsd_mutex with nn->nfsd_serv confirmed\npresent. Move the async COPY cancel into that protected section so\nevery NFSv4 state-table walker on this path observes a running server.\nAsync copies exist only while the server runs, so gating the cancel on\nnn->nfsd_serv loses nothing."
