There's a potential deadlock case when remove the vsock device or
process the RESET event:
vsock_for_each_connected_socket:
spin_lock_bh(&vsock_table_lock) ----------- (1)
...
virtio_vsock_reset_sock:
lock_sock(sk) --------------------- (2)
...
spin_unlock_bh(&vsock_table_lock)
lock_sock() may do initiative schedule when the 'sk' is owned by
other thread at the same time, we would receivce a warning message
that "scheduling while atomic".
Even worse, if the next task (selected by the scheduler) try to
release a 'sk', it need to request vsock_table_lock and the deadlock
occur, cause the system into softlockup state.
Call trace:
queued_spin_lock_slowpath
vsock_remove_bound
vsock_remove_sock
virtio_transport_release
__vsock_release
vsock_release
__sock_release
sock_close
__fput
____fput
So we should not require sk_lock in this case, just like the behavior
in vhost_vsock or vmci.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
