stub_shutdown_connection() and vhci_shutdown_connection() use
task_is_dead() before kthread_stop(). This buys nothing and wrong.
kthread_stop() is fine even if this thread is dead. However, if it
is dead nothing protects this task_struct, we shouldn't touch this
memory.
Change the code to do the necessary get_task_struct/put_task_struct.
This patch assumes that
- xxx_shutdown_connection() is always called, so we can't
leak the task_struct.
- kthread_stop_put() can't be called twice on the same task.
