====================
sunvnet: edge-case/race-conditions bug fixes

This patch series contains fixes for race-conditions in sunvnet,
that can encountered when there is a difference in latency between
producer and consumer.

Patch 1 addresses a case when the STOPPED LDC ack from a peer is
processed before vnet_start_xmit can finish updating the dr->prod
state.

Patch 2 fixes the edge-case when outgoing data and incoming
stopped-ack cross each other in flight.

Patch 3 adds a missing rcu_read_unlock(), found by code-inspection.
