rpc: keep backchannel xprt as long as server connection
Multiple backchannels can share the same tcp connection; from rfc 5661 section 2.10.3.1: A connection's association with a session is not exclusive. A connection associated with the channel(s) of one session may be simultaneously associated with the channel(s) of other sessions including sessions associated with other client IDs. However, multiple backchannels share a connection, they must all share the same xid stream (hence the same rpc_xprt); the only way we have to match replies with calls at the rpc layer is using the xid. So, keep the rpc_xprt around as long as the connection lasts, in case we're asked to use the connection as a backchannel again. Requests to create new backchannel clients over a given server connection should results in creating new clients that reuse the existing rpc_xprt. But to start, just reject attempts to associate multiple rpc_xprt's with the same underlying bc_xprt. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
