Subject: rds; Reset rs->rs_bound_addr in rds_add_bound() failure path

From: Sowmini Varadhan <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 7ae0c649c47f1c5d2db8cee6dd75855970af1669 ]

If the rds_sock is not added to the bind_hash_table, we must reset rs_bound_addr so that rds_remove_bound will not trip on this rds_sock.

rds_add_bound() does a rds_sock_put() in this failure path, so failing to reset rs_bound_addr will result in a socket refcount bug, and will trigger a WARN_ON with the stack shown below when the application subsequently tries to close the PF_RDS socket.
