acquire/release_in_xmit() work as bit lock in rds_send_xmit(), so they
are expected to ensure acquire/release memory ordering semantics.
However, test_and_set_bit/clear_bit() don't imply such semantics, on
top of this, following smp_mb__after_atomic() does not guarantee release
ordering (memory barrier actually should be placed before clear_bit()).

Instead, we use clear_bit_unlock/test_and_set_bit_lock() here.

Missing "Fixes" tag for the patch addressed to the "net" tree.

Thanks,
Michal

Yes, I think it needs:

Fixes: 1f9ecd7eacfd ("RDS: Pass rds_conn_path to rds_send_xmit()")

Since that is the last patch to modify the affected code.  Other than
that I think the patch looks good.  With the tag fixed, you can add my
rvb:

Sorry for mistake, I'll correct this and send v2 patch.

Also, test_and_set_bit/clear_bit() was first introduced in
commit 0f4b1c7e89e6. I think this can be added, too:

Fixes: 0f4b1c7e89e6 ("rds: fix rds_send_xmit() serialization")
