Parthasarathy Bhuvaragan 458be024ef tipc: remove subscription references only for pending timers
In commit, 139bb36f75 ("tipc: advance the time of deleting
subscription from subscriber->subscrp_list"), we delete the
subscription from the subscribers list and from nametable
unconditionally. This leads to the following bug if the timer
running tipc_subscrp_timeout() in another CPU accesses the
subscription list after the subscription delete request.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
