team: avoid race condition in scheduling delayed work
When team_notify_peers and team_mcast_rejoin are called, they both reset their respective .count_pending atomic variable. Then when the actual worker function is executed, the variable is atomically decremented. This pattern introduces a potential race condition where the .count_pending rolls over and the worker function keeps rescheduling until .count_pending decrements to zero again: THREAD 1 THREAD 2 ======== ======== team_notify_peers(teamX) atomic_set count_pending = 1 schedule_delayed_work team_notify_peers(teamX) atomic_set count_pending = 1 team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test count_pending = 0 (return) schedule_delayed_work team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test count_pending = -1 schedule_delayed_work (repeat until count_pending = 0) Instead of assigning a new value to .count_pending, use atomic_add to tack-on the additional desired worker function invocations.
