In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfs_common: must not hold RCU while calling nfsd_file_put_local Move holding the RCU from nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local to nfs_to_nfsd_net_put. It is the call to nfs_to->nfsd_serv_put that requires the RCU anyway (the puts for nfsd_file and netns were combined to avoid an extra indirect reference but that micro-optimization isn't possible now). This fixes xfstests generic/013 and it triggering: "Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side critical section!"
